Wet limb is a common term used in medicine and refers to one of the most common and dangerous forms of the disease in humans.
In a wet limb, swelling first occurs, and then hyperemia. The skin turns red and becomes warmer. Sometimes, especially when the swelling is quite severe, patients use hot compresses to relieve pain. And then hot edema joins the swelling. A cold compress, on the contrary, removes redness and gives the hands a paler gray tint. The irradiation of pain impulses through the skin increases.
It is not recommended to treat a wet limb on your own; it is best to seek help from a qualified doctor, since the disease can have serious consequences.
