What injuries, serious or trivial, have you sustained? I've been wounded so many time's I've actually lost count, but I have at least 30 scars on my body-mostly tiny ones on my limbs. Although, the skin on both my knees is actually scar tissue, and almost bone-white.
I frequently run into the kitchen bench and bruise my hips (they're the same height as it is) and my worst injury;
About three years ago I attempted a headstand on the couch, got stuck and twisted my neck around, just shy of snapping it. Ever since it's been stiff, sore and I can crack it whenever I feel like it. I think there's a torn ligament or fractured vertebrae in there somewhere.
I'm interested in how often others injured themselves 'cause I seem to do it on a daily basis :lol:

I've never broken, severed, squashed or wounded myself any more severely than a concussion, bump on the head (literally, golf ball sized), or a sprained ankle. Actually, one time I pulled a muscle in my neck and that was pretty scary/painful. Now that I think about it, it could've been worse. Hopefully nothing bad happens. >_>

Elphy board. For me though, excluding the muscles I pull standing up:

Broken Collarbone
Worst graze - knee scraped to kneecap
Several badly sprained ankles
Slipped kneecap
Sprained wrist bad enough to be almost broken

And people say netball is a soft sport...

Yeah. Elphy's gonna have us cringe while IBS indulges or something.

I had injuries having to do with a sprained back and painful but temporary paralysis and it all went untreated.

Oh wow Elph you are quite rough with yourself. And I thought my mum had a lot of injuries (she's had more then me, grew up on a farm.) I was cleaning a tin can a couple days ago and cut my fingers roughly four times. Strangely, none of them bled, despite being over a mm deep.
Oh, and I swear I've got arthritis. I'm cracking the joints of my fingers as I sit here.



My mum..

Has had a broken jaw
Has been charged by a goat, two wild boars and a horse
Fought off two snakes (one King Brown and one Taipan)
Nearly ripped her pinky finger off (hanging on by the bone)
Has been kicked by a horse
Has been in a car crash
I'm not even going to get started on everything else lol.

Not really. Never had a broken bone, but I HAVE almost drowned and fell headfirst off a bridge when I was young. I rarely cut myself or anything and I haven't tripped in a long time. (Besides that time when I was on the grass and it was slippery and I flipped over...)

During the ANZAC day long weekend, I spilt boiling water (straight from the kettle) on my hand. I treated it in cold water for an hour, and five hours later their was no evidence I'd ever burnt myself.

I broke my right forearm (clean break of both my ulna and radius) so they had to put in two seven pin plates on each bone. I ended up with radial nerve palsy because the orthopedic surgeon was a nub and I had to wait a whole three months until I could even do a thumbs up lol.

Very rarely


I once sprained my foot when I was 8-9 years old.

I once hit my head and blood was pouring down my face. Had to get the wound stiched.

I can't think of anything else at the moment, and I hope I'll stay free from injuries.

I walk into walls, doors, tables and stuff all the time, and god knows how many times my cat's tripped me down the stairs :rolleyes: Oooh, burnt myself quite a lot, too.

I'm just really careless, not a day goes by where I don't fall on the floor, most of the time in the middle of the road on my way to and from school, of course.

But I'm pretty lucky considering, I've never been seriously injured,

Fallen down the stairs (3 times, no bones broken luckily)
Fast cricket ball to the knee (once, no breakages but hurt like hell)
Climbed a fence ,spiked at the top, and cut my hand (once)
Burned my hands with an oven (because of stupidity)
Walked into a lampost (lol)

No bone breakages in my life so far.

Hey, clumsy gangsters have a hard life:aldo:.

No broken bones for me, just the normal pains. I remember having a really high fever so bad the docters feared my life but well that was a really long time ago.

the last time I injured myself was last summer, me and my cousin were trying to put our fishing boat up against a tree because it was about to rain, we he had the bright idea to use rope, so basically I was holding it up and he was pulling the rope, he started to let go after we tied it but when he let go it swung and hit me pushing me into some bricks we had lined up around our hang out spot in the backyard. I had dark purplish black bruises everywhere... Perhaps one of the more morbid recent injuries I have had was a fish hook going through my finger 2 years ago.
I hurt myself a shit load when I was little though, cutting my head on the side of a drawer while my sis and I were jumping on the bed. Spraining both of my ankles in one season of basketball, too many bruises and cuts to name, from just being a kid. I broke my leg when I was 2. yeeeaaah.
