Am I one of few that has NEVER broken a bone?

twirlagig · 13-09-2011 11:04pm #1

We saw a customer in work today... Had two casts on, one on each arm, poor guy!
Anyway, got to talking about bone breakages etc and all apart from myself had broken an arm, wrist etc over the years. I've never had a breakage, and I remember being raged with jealousy when people in school came in and got their casts graffiti-ed (Or whatever you call it)

loads of people have never broken anything. I've never broken anything, I don't feel special.

Broke a few hymens in my time though, oh boy

louth87 · 13-09-2011 11:05pm

+1 Never broken a bone **touches wood**

Wibbs · 13-09-2011 11:07pm

Couple of fingers and ribs, but main bones no.

twirlagig · 13-09-2011 11:07pm

I don't feel special either but i got, 'Ah, you must've when you were a child' etc....

You say that now, but you'll be in a nightclub at the weekend and a fat man will push you over... or that was just me?

Seriously though you've jinxed it now!

I've broken my nose, about 4 of my fingers, fractured my wrist, dislocated my wrist, broken both my arms and broken 3 bones in my ankle.

And I'm only 22.

Almost broke my nose as a kid

Suspected broken scaphoid couple of years ago, Dr didn't order the precautionary cast and diagnosed tendon and ligament damage instead. Wouldn't have minded a cast for a week, it would have looked alot cooler than the splinting and bandages applied instead.

It seems to be a new yearly thing for me. Broke my ankle last year and the same weekend a year later i broke my wrist. Will probably be my head in Aug next year.

Also broke my other ankle, collarbone, few ribs and toes when i was younger.

Nope neither have I!! though I've cracked bones (small cracks which healed on there own) but never full breaks

LeixlipRed · 13-09-2011 11:30pm

Broke my wrists five times. Three from football, one from falling off a wall and one cause my Dad tripped me when I was five. I'm still angry about that :pac:

TheMilkyPirate · 13-09-2011 11:32pm

Broken a few bones over the years, But i fell off a swing when i was 14 and snapped my wrist in half it was stickin out through the skin and everything. Probably one of the most painful things to ever happen to me

Dear God, were you savaged by rabid wolves? :eek::eek:
Are you......ok now!?

stealinhorses · 13-09-2011 11:35pm

I've fractured my rib playing rugby when I was about 13. Otherwise, just a couple of wrenched ankles/wrists.

13-09-2011 11:35pm

Nope. I never broke a bone either.

Chinafoot · 13-09-2011 11:35pm

Never broken anything. Always wanted a broken hand for exams time...until it happened my cousin and he had to dictate his exam answers to someone. I couldn't do that

Where To · 13-09-2011 11:35pm

I have a broken face:(

Columbia · 13-09-2011 11:36pm

Tayla · 13-09-2011 11:48pm

I've never broken a bone either....when I was having a baby I got the epidural and it took the anesthetist nearly an hour to get the needle into my back, he said he'd never came across bones as hard as mine, I cursed all the milk I drank for my whole life at that point :mad:

I was in a pretty bad crash a few years ago, I was the passenger and I tend to stupidly sit with my legs crossed in the car so one of my legs got a pretty terrible bang, my whole leg was bruised but they x-rayed it and said it was fine, it was only when the swelling went down a couple of weeks later that I realised the bone felt completely misshapen, you can't see it but if you feel it it's like there's no bone there because it's been pushed back so far.

Am I one of few that has NEVER broken a bone?
