Red and swollen skin on the back of the hand
Introduction
Introduction Redness and swelling of the back of the hand is a clinical symptom of acute infection in the palm of the hand. The local infection of the acute infection in the middle of the palm is characterized by redness and swelling of the skin on the back of the hand, and acute suppurative infection of the hand is more common. Small injuries that are easily overlooked, such as abrasions, stab wounds, reverse peeling and cuts, can sometimes cause serious infections in the hands.
Cause
Cause
Causes: The interstitial infection in the palm is caused by the spread of tenosynovitis of the middle finger and the ring finger. The infection between the fishes is caused by the infection of the tendon sheath. It can also be infected by direct stab wounds. Most of the pathogens are Staphylococcus aureus. Swelling, tenderness, and increased pain when straightening your fingers.

diagnosis:
1. The local characteristics of the acute infection in the palmar space are: 1 palm palm concave disappeared or slightly bulged, the skin was white, pain and pressure sickness was obvious. The two-finger three-finger is semi-buckled, and the pain is exacerbated when the finger is passively extended. 3 hands on the back of the skin is red, swollen and obvious, often easy to mistaken for cellulitis.
2. The local characteristics of acute infection in the inter-floating interval are: 1 The first finger sputum and the big fish are obviously swollen and have tenderness. 2 The thumb is abducted, and the movement of the palm and the adduction is limited. 3 The index finger is semi-buckled, and the pain is exacerbated when the finger is passively extended. 4 The palm of the hand exists, and the back of the hand is swollen.
Diagnosis
Differential diagnosis
Differential diagnosis of redness and swelling of the back of the hand:
1. Hard edema of the palm: Hard edema of the palm is local edema caused by inflammation of the palm tissue due to trauma, infection, autoimmune and other factors. For various reasons, some edema will last for more than one month to 1-2 years. The post-injury edema lasts for more than 6 weeks without regressive tendency. It is called sustained edema, and some of the cases are rich in protein, which will accumulate a large amount of cellulose, which will form scar tissue together with inflammatory hyperplasia. Make the skin harder under the skin. That forms "hard edema."
2, finger frozen: finger frozen is the early symptoms of frostbite. The hands, feet and auricle are the distal part of the human blood circulation and are the predilection sites of frostbite. After the late autumn, the temperature suddenly decreased and the blood flow in the peripheral blood vessels became slow. When the temperature is lower than 10 degrees Celsius, the subcutaneous arterioles in the above-mentioned parts are contracted by cold, and the venous return is not smooth, thereby causing frostbite. Some patients also induce frostbite due to congenital variability of blood vessels and narrow blood vessels leading to poor blood flow.
