How to use "Swelling" in context?
When a person experiences swelling, it is usually due to a buildup of fluid in the body. Swelling can be around the joints, under the skin, in the eyes, and in the stomach. Many different things can cause swelling, from minor injuries to more serious illnesses. Swelling can often be uncomfortable, and may make it difficult to move around or do normal activities. It is important to call a doctor if you experience swelling because it can be a sign of a more serious medical condition.
