Weird Things That Happen While Walking




My husband and I have noticed when we are walking our fingers start to swell. They swell so much; our wedding rings get really tight on our fingers, making them very uncomfortable. We were puzzled so, I decided to do a little research on it, and here is what I found. The cause is related to vasodilatation. It is when the blood vessels open up which leads to increased blood flow near the surface of our skin.  This is what also causes your face to turn red and puffiness in our hands.


Once you cool down and the circulation and blood vessels return to normal, your hands and the color of your face should return to normal. If your rings are tight after exercise, it’s probably a good idea to take them off before you start working out.

Your hand swelling and facial redness may be annoying but they are unlikely to be due to anything serious. Think of them as small prices to pay to stay in shape and avoid overheating. Always keep water handy to keep hydrated.
