I like to consider myself a highly educated 41 year old guy with a lot of life experience. And I work in healthcare.
And I've never heard of this

Mayo Clinic Overview
So you know I'm not making it up. I only know about this from trying to research what I'm experiencing. It has something to do with the facia of the muscle constricting bloodflow out of the muscle, hence the swelling and numbness.
The same thing can happen to limbs during traumatic accidents, which is called Acute compartment syndrome and is much more serious. It can even lead to loss of limbs. The surgical procedure to relieve this swelling is called a fasciotomoy and basically calls for a large incision in the fascia to relieve pressure.
