SUBMITTED SEPTEMBER 8, 2010

Before BAUER, POSNER and WOOD, Circuit Judges.

Anthony Fletcher, an Illinois state prisoner, brought this civil rights suit against prison employees who he claims violated his federal constitutional rights by using excessive force to restrain him and by recklessly disregarding his need for medical attention. His complaint charges that while transferring him on June 29, 2008, from one cell to another prison guards used excessive force to restrain and move him and that as a result he suffered “severe injury and pain to wrists, arms, feet, neck, shoulders, and back.” For two days, the complaint continues, he was denied medical treatment for his injuries and for asthma, eczema, and diabetes, and as a result he suffered from “diabetic pain” and asthmatic attacks.
