My legs and feet hurt and i looked down and out of nowhere my calfs and feet were huge!!! why would i have edema that bad out of the blue?

Unusual: Those symptoms are unusual at your age. The worst thing we worry about with those symptoms is a blood clot in the pelvis or inferior vena cava. There are many other potential causes also, though. Therefore, you need to see your doctor to evaluate and treat the problem ASAP.
