Puffy hands after cardio?

[sophiem]

I was wondering if anyone experiences this or if they know why it occurs. Not often, but once in a while when I do cardio, especially if it's warm in the house, my hands get all puffy. What's up with that? Is there something I could be doing it prevent it?

I always thought my "swelled up" feeling after cardio was because my blood was pumping so thoroughly and all my inner "liquids" had just been sloshing around for a good hour and were distributed throughout my body, rather than settled in one place.

I could easily be wrong.
