re: Alvin Kamara Saints Contract Discussion
LOL! Yeah. They are all so eager to break news that they don't take the time to verify if there is any validity to what they had been told. Ian Fullacrap has led the pack in that over the years.

re: Alvin Kamara Saints Contract Discussion
Anybody concerned that Kamara apparently needed an epidural?

re: Alvin Kamara Saints Contract Discussion
Not really. As verified by rezburna that procedure, among others, are very common for athletes. I believe some people confuse a common steroid epidural with an epidural anaesthesia. The former is what Kamara had and is to combat inflammation. The second is what can be given before surgery or childbirth to completely mask pain. I know people that have had one for an acute condition and never needed another. Myself, I have had close to twenty of them and they work quite well for my needs. But I have a chronic cervical condition.

Not sure what to believe. Epidural/SI joint/stomach bug/contract? However, epidural is a significant concern. Sacroiliac (SI) joint injection is completely different and not nearly as worrisome. |

I get those twice a year in the facet joints and they relieve chronic pain caused by arthritis or bone spurs.

re: Alvin Kamara Saints Contract Discussion
Yes, regardless of commonality in any industry, he wasn’t bored and just decided to have this procedure. There is a reason. Could be nothing, could be something..., but he didn’t just say: “hey let’s go get some Ben & Jerry’s and on the way let’s stop in and see what the diddly doo is on these injections.”.
