Because the causes of swollen hands and fingers in the morning can vary, it’s important to understand the exact cause of the swelling before considering what kind of treatment to seek. Causes can include:

1. Dehydration: The most common cause for swollen hands when you wake up in the morning is fluid retention. If you don’t drink enough water each day, your body can go into dehydration mode when you sleep. What that means is the body holds onto the fluids; as a result, your hands and fingers, and in some cases, your feet swell because of water retention.

2. Sleep posture: How you sleep can lead to swollen hands and fingers in the morning. If you toss and turn when you sleep it’s possible that you could bend your wrist and cause swelling.

3. Arthritis: Swelling related to arthritis is caused by inflammation of the joints. The swelling and stiffness due to arthritis can last for a few hours after you wake up; it tends to affect the smaller joints, like those in your hands.
Rheumatoid arthritis is the most common form of arthritis that causes the finger joints to swell. Psoriatic arthritis causes swelling in the fingers and joints while osteoarthritis develops when the cartilage between your finger joints degenerates. Cervical or neck spondylosis is a form of arthritis that affects the neck, but, it can creep into the fingers.
4. High sodium diet: A poor diet high in sodium can lead to swollen hands and fingers in the morning. When you eat foods with high levels of sodium (deep-fried, processed foods, sauces, dressings) or don’t eat enough healthy foods, your body retains water.
5. Kidney issues: Your kidney and liver can cause your hands and joints to swell in the mornings. Both of these organs are responsible for filtering fluids in your body. If either or both organs are not functioning properly, water can build up in the body and accumulate in your hands and feet.
6. Allergies: If you have allergies, it’s quite possible that you can come into contact with something that causes a reaction in your body, resulting in swollen hands and fingers in the morning.
For example, angioedema or angioneurotic edema is a skin condition characterized by swelling beneath the surface of the skin and is often caused by an allergic reaction. While it typically affects the underlying skin layers of the eyes, ears, and lips, it can also affect the fingers.
7. Pregnancy: If you are pregnant you might wake up in the morning with swollen hands, fingers and feet. There are a number of reasons why this happens. During pregnancy, your body produces around 50% more blood and other body fluids to help your baby grow. And around 25% of your pregnancy weight comes from fluid retention. And some of that extra fluid is going to go to your hands and feet.
8. Activity or inactivity: If you constantly use your hands in strenuous activities at work, or exercise, or other repetitive motions, your hands and fingers could swell due to bad circulation. At the same time, because you are inactive while you sleep, it’s possible your hands could feel swollen in the morning from blood being pushed to the hands.
9. Infections: Infections like paronychia, a skin condition of the fingernails, cellulitis, a bacterial skin infection, and osteomyelitis, a bone disease, can also cause swelling in the hands and fingers as your immune system tries to fight the infections.
