Swelling in hand

I had rotator cuff surgery 4 months ago and everything went fine ,but now suddenly I have welling in my hand. What would cause that?

I sometimes see the same problem in my patients after rotator cuff surgery. Usually it is from lack of motion or use of the extremity, and it resolves with time. I would see your surgeon however, he may want to evaluate your circulation to be sure there are no problems such as a thrombosis.
