How can you tell it is swollen? They have a hard exo-skeleton so swelling is rarely possible.. one pincher is always bigger than the other it is called the big pincher. They do not grow because they are covered with a hard exoskeleton.. they only grow during molting.
please contact me via email so I can help you better.

It is not swollen.. they do not have skin to swell but a hard exoskeleton. It is normal for one pincher to be much larger than the other.. it is called the big pincher. It is not growing like above.. they only grow during the molting process.

Isn't one pincher supposed to be bigger than the other?
