Since last yesterday afternoon I have been getting a hot throbbing, stabbing pain in my leg just below my knee.
What could be causing it ??
Do I need to see a Doctor no ??

no = now.

To be on the safe side yes.

Is there any swelling in your leg and does the leg feel hot to the touch?
Your symptoms sound like my mother's when she had a thrombosis in her leg..and that does need medical attention sooner rather than later, especially with the holidays coming up.
Good luck!

So it seem like I need to keep my fingers crossed that my Doctor is working on Monday or Tuesday

No, grandmoon, you do not wait until Monday, you go to the next Hospital Emergency or Outpatient section.
Don't play with your life.

Is it possible you have arthritis in your knee?........

Do what Erica said go to the Emergency at hospital.
or maybe you have another medical clinic around where you live if they are open go there...
Yrs. ago when I had a small blood clot in my leg, it was like the symptoms you described, so find a dr. today.

Please head for the ED today. Better to be sure than sorry.
Why is it that we always seem to need to see a doctor on the weekends?
