Hello,
Thank you for your query at DoctorSpring.com
I understand your concern.
The tingling sensation could be either due to a vitamin deficiency or due to overuse working on the keyboard. I need to see the swelling once before I can comment further. Kindly attach a picture here or send it directly to [email protected]
Regards,
Dr. Vivek

I do not have any swelling on hand.
Does stress cause any swelling on lungs?
Hello,
No stress, does not cause any swelling on the lungs. It however can cause palpitations, shortness of breath, and chest pain mimicking other chest conditions.
Feel free to discuss further,
Regards.
Patient replied :
Thats good to know - Thanks!
How can you know that you are having palpitations? I am trying to understand to understand if I face that or not :)
Also, sometimes I have this weird feeling of increased heartbeat when I stand up after sitting for sometime - is that palpitation?

Hello,
When we are scared, or anxious, our heart starts beating really fast, up to a point, where if all other sound sources are stopped, we can hear the rapid heart beat. This is palpitations.
Yes, what you feel after standing up, is postural hypotension, a very common phenomenon, and to rapidly fix the problem, the heart starts beating fast, and the BP comes back to normal.
Regards.
