has this been happening regularly to u? do not neglect your health. first try to rule out if its anything o do with the position of sleeping at night. if u do not manage to figure out anything best would be to consult a physician on this matter.

are you sure its for no reason? eat or drink anything before this happens? IF your absolutely positive there is no reason for the swelling, you amy want to talk to a doctor because there are some physical problems that can cause this, whether it be some sort of infection (which my sister had) or some other diseases. but just be positive you're not just freakin yourself out over nothing. people get bloated and you can bloated if its around period time.

Aw Chewy, I can't believe that you are asking this. Go to the doctor ASAP. When the boys are in pain you don't play around. The swelling 'lefty' is experiencing could be your body's natural cushioning reaction that often happens when an area experiences trauma. The swelling could also be blood pooling in the scrotum - which ain't a good thing. Try using an ice pack until you get there, but GO as soon as you can.

Your body is retaining water for some reason. Are you pregnant? It's not just the ankles that swell when you develop toxemia. See your doctor.\n\nIt is also possible that you are allergic to something. What's new or different about your bed or bedroom? \n\nor\n\nYou had a case of the blues last night and cried yourself to sleep. Try applying a face cloth dipped in water as hot as you can stand it for awhile, than immediately switch to a cold water one. Alternate these for a few minutes and the swelling should go down.\n\nor\n\nWe're doing your homework for you here. Smart girl, if that's the case!

One possibility could be that you are having some sort of back problem.  For example, I have nerve damage in my left shoulder due to scoliosis.  I sometimes have a sore left arm all the way down to the tips of my fingers from it!  Stretching most days of the week and seeing a chiropractor resolved it.  Also, you may want to consider carpal tunnel syndrome.  Carpal tunnel syndrome is a specific group of symptoms that can include tingling, numbness, weakness, or pain in the fingers, thumb, hand, and occasionally in the arm.  You may want to visit a doctor just in case to find out what it is for certain.  Best of luck.

Do you have soreness/numbness in your left or right arm or hands.  Did this begin after an evet, ie car wreck or head trauma.  If it is really painful you need to have an MRI done..could be stenosis in the cervical or some type of spondylolestsis.

Please schedule an appointment to go to your doctor immediately. No one here, myself included, is qualified to give you an answer. I had a similar problem (in the armpit as well), and it turned out to be a cyst the size of a gumball. It was removed under local anesthetic. My arm was sore for a day or two, and then I was fine. However, I am not implying you have a cyst in your's as well. What I am suggesting is you make a doctor's appt. first thing tomorrow morning.

I am a walker and my hands swell when I walk.  I believe it has something to do with gravity and the blood falling all towards the ground (when your hands are pointed downward)

if doc says there is nothing then why are you asking again.  maybe just muscle pain if you've been walking alot and doc may not see that. try not to worry about it.

It sounds like lymphedema, swelling of a limb often experienced as a side-effect of removal of the lymph nodes, as in cancer surgery. Perhaps the lymph nodes are blocked for some reason.\n\nI'm not a physician or medical student, just know a little about lymphedema from a friend who has it.

i agree with the first answer see a doctor and try to do some workouts with the arm getting it wet and see if it goes numb

My friend had benign tumors that grew in her arms. Go see a doctor!

A new blood clot could maybe be there, perhaps there is enough lateral flow to keep the swelling subsided.  But I'm thinking more likely it could be a lymphatic problem and fluid is accumulating lymphatically.  Definitely keep on top of this with your doctor!  Get well!

Buddy, the problem is we sometimes put our entire body weight on that arm since we are sleeping side ways, so our arms numbs, that usualy goes away in time.\nIts normal feeling don't worry. If you have doughts you could always ask a doctor, but they will charge for it.

Possible suggestions, pinched nerves, carpal tunnell, symptoms of diabetes;   If there is any numbness in your arm, you need to call the Doc tonight especially if the hand is cold or discolored.  Your circulation might be restricted-depending on your age, and other health issues, this doesn't sound right--I probably wouldn't wait till morning.

Use the over the counter drug LYSINE ever day and avoid foods like Chocolate. Apply ice to the area. This will help the swelling.

Not only the left arm can hurt,...sometimes neck and jaw will be affected also.
