I was not aware that the huddle had so many internet doctors here might as well get a second opinion.

4 days ago I started having sharp pains in my left arm and was shooting all the way to my left foot when I woke up in the morning my knee was twice its normal size.....I became nervous and went to the ER the place was busy as hell the doc looked at it and asked if I hurt it and I said no it just happened he said it looks like I have arthritis and I was like dude that is for old people and he told me to stay off it and the swelling will go down....As I'm typing this up my knee is still full of fluid, I might need to go see my regular doc has this happened to anybody here??

btw the ER doc took an Xray and piss sample said no infection and nothing looks out of place.

Go see an ortho guy....

The idea that you're experiencing sharp pains that radiate from your arm all the way down your leg indicates a nerve issue, likely from your spine being out of alignment or a nerve being pinched somewhere. You could even start with a chiropractor if you know one or one comes highly recommended. I don't recommend picking a chiro out of the phone book... they are only as good as their reputation, so go on recommendations.

Few years ago I thought my rotator cuff was gone, my shoulder was killing me and my golf game went to poo. Several sets of x-rays revealed nothing and my ortho buddy got me an MRI which revealed a partially herniated disc in my neck. Good as new now with no surgery, but it was an SOB to find out what the problem was.

I'd start with an ortho guy like I said...

Going to see an orth guy is definitely the best move....and I agree it sounds like a nerve issue.

Sounds like you need an MRI, drain the fluid out of it and possible steroid injection in the knee and some NSAIDS if it is still hurting for the next day or two. Did you injure it in any way, or do you have a history of Gout?

Oh, and go see an Orthopedist...

      Give Legette another season?

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.

      I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......

      Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
