My lymphedema started out as a fullness and numbness under my arm and down to my elbow. Shortly after that the top of my hand started swelling. Mine usually bothers me the worst when I use my arm a lot and during hot weather. There really was not any pain just tingling and fullness. Hope you are feeling better soon. May God give you peace and healing today. Nancy
