Damage you've had

oneweb

What injuries have you had? Someone I know is recovering from a crash and I was told the list of injuries they suffered. To say ouch would've understated it.

Here's me with just a few stitches in a few places (one set to close a hole right through my top lip) and broken teeth.
Nothing as major as a missing leg or a broken arm TG

What about you?

Broke bones (legs, collar, arms etc)
Ripped tendons (knee, hand)
Sprains (wrist, ankle)
Dislocations (knee, shoulder)

ad nauseum

Never broke anything... sprained a knee and pulled a muscle or two. (Muscles were in my back and leg before anyone makes any smartass remarks

)

When I was about 4, I jumped off a bed at home and broke my arm!

When i was about 11, a gang of us were playing tag in the dark, and i was being chased through a neighbours garden and I didn't see the low clothes line! So the link caught me under the chin and flung me! Ended up with with broken collar bone and a big long red stripe from where the line caught me under my chin!

On the day after my 18th I had to get my appendix removed so that was 5 stitches.

3 years ago, me and 3 other mates had a serious car accident. Luckily I only had whiplash. The driver and the guy directly behind him weren't so lucky. The driver is now in a wheelchair and the guy who was behind him had broken his neck, but is OK now (after about a year and a half in rehab). The guy directly behind me was unscathed too so I was sure damned lucky whiplash was the only injury I got! An experience I never want to live again!

Scar on my eye brow which looks like I shave it daily

Broken my ancle 4 times(same leg) and also chipped it which has/will lead to atortises(sp)
Dislocated my right shoulder on purpose but it went wrong one night trying to show off

Appendix burst one night,
tonsils removed(not serious cause I liked jely then

)
that basicly it all

plenty of scars-
did a spectacular 35/40ft descent through the roof of the canoe club at tcd in 1990 at a party-
broken elbow -still wired, broken femur-still got two plates, and two crushed vertabrae.
Only fatalities were 2 canoes during my descent.

I forgot
I have another crushed vertebra from jumping over the back wall of the handball alley in school -I landed badly.(Consultant ddn't know what to make of the X-Ray from the accident above, ubtil I explained the situation)

Few scars from fights and falling out of trees when I was younger (I was borderline hyperactive )
One dodgy kidney as a result of a fight over a box of matches.
I have a scar under my eye from falling upstairs outta niteclub at 6am in the morning

BigEejit

I cracked a small round bone in wrist (painful as hell, in a acast for 9 weeks) and broke a bone in my foot playing rugby, I also tore muscles on a regular basis ... the worst one for me was getting my nose broken in a fight (flaming drunk of course) when I was about 17, I got TWO vicious black eyes from it, a lot more embarrasing than the plaster on my nose ... heh, I was wearing these HUGE sunglasses for a few weeks ... in November:rolleyes:

solice

im just apussy when it comes to bones, i get all light headed and start to giggle uncontrabbly, i have to say that this is prob the best thread i have ever read, purely in the entertaining sense.

Space Coyote

Cut my hand open with bread knife when i was 6.
Smashed my nose off my mates head when i was 11. 2 black eyes at the one time is quite a sight! Got another black eye running into a girl's head. She had those bally yokes in her hair to make a pony tail, and it boshed me straight in the eyeball. Embarrasing or what!
Burst a disc in my lower backa few years ago. Fell on the floor in a niteclub, pissed out of my head, and my 2 mates landed on me. Thought I broke me arm but didnt notice the pain in me back til the morning. Never felt pain like it in me life. Excrutiating.
Sprained ankles loads of times, pulled calf musles, sprained wrists, thumbs etc, mostly from football or acting the eejit.
My head is indestructible though, smashed off the ground many times, never any blood.
Had a few nastly bike crashes but was very very lucky.
Also had a completely collapsed lung a few years back. Doc said I'd be in hospital for 2 days....spent 3 weeks in hospital. Worst time of my life by a long way.

mavedic

reading the other posts i think some people are going to run out of lives soon...

when i was 3 i fell out of a bedroom window onto the lawn and broke my leg. Don't remember much about it.
I broke my arm when I was thrown off a horse.
apart from that nothing serious has ever really happened to me tg!

Some bad injuries out there but JESUS this one sounds horrible:

Originally posted by Tusky
nail sticking out of a wall, i leaned back against it and it went into my head

Anyway, when I was about 3 I fell on the patio in my garden and gashed my forehead. Only 2 stiches in that though, and the scar looks dead sexy

Then I broke the humeros in my left arm. Wasn't that painful as far as I can remember but it was a strange sensation.

After that I broke and dislocated my left thumb playing rugby. It wasn't too painful either, but I'll never forget them trying to force it back into the growth plate. Definitely the most painful thing I have experienced in my life!

At some point in my life I was also pushed through a pane of glass in school resulting in 4 stitches in the little finger of my right hand.

It's funny but a lot of the bad injuries you get don't actually hurt as much as the treatment!

Caesar_Bojangle

Once when i was 14 or so, i was cycling down a very steep hill quite rapidly. When i yanked on the brakes, they didnt work and i smashed my balls off that pointy bit in the centre of the handlebar. I had a nice screw shape symbol engraved in my balls for two weeks after.

Vlad_Tepes

well, I had a litlle tumor located between the skull and the brain..and it hurt me a lot. I had a surgery and now everything is okay. But I wouldn't want my biggest ennemy to go thru that, the headaches I had felt like Hellraiser got me..

Tyrrial

-crashed my bike into a pole, broke my arm and damaged my head a bit

-Broke my leg in 2 places in a game of soccer...

- was stabbed in the chest (still have a huge scar from that)

-elbow was dammaged when it got cought by a piece of a fence that was sticking out when i was running by it (game of soccer)

-Sawed through my thumb durring the construction studies leaving cert practical exam a few years ago.

that's all i can think of.

The closest I've ever gotten to breaking a bone, was when my brother and I were mess scrapping or something (he's three years older than me and I was like 10 at the time). Anyhow... he hit me with the most retarded punch in the hip, I heard a crack and a scream, and it turned out he broke his thumb. Got my finger caught in a door tho once.

Seaneh

Any injurys I didnt give a reason happened between Soccer Rugby and Muntain biking.

Mostly the second and third reason.

/me goes to visit physio.

tman

just a couple of scars from scabs that i wouldn't stop picking at:rolleyes:

oh yeah, and a small scar on my forehead from falling over when i was 2 years old (must be where meh brain went)

a few twisted ankles & poked eyes along the way too (had to wear a feckin patch for 2 months when i was about 12, lucky i didn't blind myself)

Ryo Hazuki

I was going too fast on a bicycle (no brakes) and ploughed straight into a car coming out of a driveway, car rolled up on one of my feet and I had to wait for the driver to wind down the window and explain to her (heh) twice that my foot was under her wheel, and then she went forward!, Incurring more pain.

The car recieved no damage, nor did I.

lol, reminded me of a time i was cycling home & someeone opened a car door in my path /me goes flying headfirst into car:rolleyes:
lucky i came away unschathed

TomTom

Had a few injuries
But i have some sort of bone enzyme problem so I have never felt it when I brok any bones. (lucky me)

Broke Left wrist in three places, never noticed until the broken bones pinched an artury and stopped the blood flow.

Fractured Left wrist again.

Tramua in my head after a car accident. Don't know what trauma is, I thaugh it was just bad headaches.

Some how managed to deform my collor bone. It's out of shape and the doctors have no explination.

Broke two big toes, doctors discovered that during an operation, I never knew about it until afterwards. One of them had set wrong so they broke it during the op and re set it.

Fractured three ribs after a tackle from a genitic monster of a human during a rugby match.

Several bad falls where I now have either scars or groves inmy skull from the falls.

Cut wrist from putting fist through glass door by acident, nice little scars from that.

Broke about 3 teeth playing sports and had to get one root canal.

Got oncussion from having my head smacked off a goal post during a game.

Dislocated fingers several times.

Took a lump out of my left shin bone when fell on the corner of a table.

Pallet fell on me and nails on it stook into my leg and tore it as it slid off me. Man I cried after that one as I was only 10

Ripped my head open off the ground after going over the handel bars of a bike. Right where my eyebrow is, so now the scar is covered. Thank god.

Tore my right leg open one after getting it caught in barbed wire. It took hold and ripped a nice gash. You could see the contents of my leg.

Stood on nails (a few times) minor enough.

My biggest injury is when I ripped my right knee apart. I rupured the ligaments and somehow managed to tear the cratilage off completly. Load of operations, a month in hospital and a year on crutches cured that, kinda. Had to learn how to walk again after it as the wound got infected and there was a blood clot near the calf muscel about a month after the operation. Cause loads more damage to the muscel. The doc said, is the infection had not bee discovered I would have lost my right leg from the kneed down. And it's my favourite leg. I went in on the friday instead of the monday after cause I would have not been able to make it on the monday. Luckly I did.

neohoki

okay so they're not MY injuries but my brother is extremely accident prone

1.When he was around 3 he stuck his foot in a boiling hot pot of stew and burnt it horribly(it's still kinda disfigured)
2.He was jumping on his bed fell over bit his lip and ripped it open
3.Okay you know when you're in the park and u throw a huge metal spanner up into the trees to get conkers down...well anyway...he decided to run under the tree when my dad was throwing the spanner up and it hit him on the head splitting it open(fun for all!!!)
4.We had this french babysitter person and he wa swlaking along with and he just fell over and split his head open again!!
4.he's ugly

Some of the posts above just have me in stitches lmao'ing! (padoom tish). Neo's part 3 -

I'm wincing at the thought of some of them too. Maybe mammy was right to wrap me in all that cotton wool.

Forgot to mention, mine were from a one tonne roller, video recorder, and sister's stoopid lil stoopid bike.

When you're at one end of a hall looking away from the hall area and the other people at the other end start shoutin your name like mad, you're not just gonna just duck immediately, are you? No, well, I didn't.
I turned round to see what was going on only to be greeted by the reception of a unihockey puck at full speed to my eye. Fupping gobsh!tes. One of the lights went out for quite a few hours. There was blood in the colouredy bit of the eye. It was a bit like one of those googley-eye things.

DeVore

not much but when I have they've been doozies!

Smashed my right hand index knuckle against a concrete wall in school.

Numerous sprains, busted knuckles and bloodied noses playing basketball (a supposed non-contact sport... hahah yeah right).

Numerous scars from working as a cobbler including nailing two fingers together with a compressed nail gun. Ow!

Busted front tooth playing Rugby.

Ripped both ligaments sprinting in the All Ireland finals (clocking a personal best at the same time I might add ... /me polishes fingernails on chest)

Bone marrow biopsis for an occluded retinal vein. Most painful thing I've EVER experienced.

Broken rib while snowboard (as well as snapping my credit card in half due to the impact. !)

Compressed two vertebrae from a totally fncked up jump while snowboarding. Entailing a trip to the hospital and two days on morpheine-dervied painkillers (very powerful drug that... tripped off my head for a day. Fun!)

Fnck, I'm a mess LOL.

-3yo, jumped off the couch onto the oul lads car keys.Went all the way through my foot. The key was visible threough the skin but didn't pierce it.

-9yo, Slipped on a spilt drink at a school xmas party onto my face and 'knocked a tooth out'. I went to hospital with the da and the mother and school janitor went through the party rubbish at the end of the night looking for the tooth. Couldn't find it but an xray taken a day or two later showed it was actually behind my nose!!

23-23yo, worked in a bar and a 6ft tall CO2 bottle fell on my big toe, well and truelly squishing it. It still looks a bit funny now.

After a month on crutches and finally getting back to work, within about two days a drunk driver hit me. I was driving one of those mini subaru hi-ace thingings. The engine is under the front seats so there is about 4inches of air and about 3mm of metal between your feet and the outside world. I turn a bend and see this sierra spinning on the wet road towards me. There was nothing I could do and the back drivers side corner of his car hit smack bang in the middle of the front of the van. TG there is a spare tyre under the floor there cause if he had have hit a few inches left or right, either me or my mate would have probably lost our legs. Anyway the van got thrown backwards and over on its side. The windscreen popped out and the mate climbed out. I shouted "What about me!" I'm hanging about 5ft in the air by my seat belt with my legs trapped by the dashboard.:D Anyway, the Drunk drives off after he regained conciousness cause we were too in shock to remember to take the keys out of his ignition. The ambulance and guards arrive and ask if we got his reg no. NO!! We get into the back of the ambulance and a few minutes later a guard comes to the back door and holds up a reg plate and says "Is this yours?". NO!!!:D

Off course the drunk was waiting in his gaff with a bottle of whiskey waiting for the guards and said he just took it to calm his nerves after the crash so we couldn't get him for DUI but at least the insurance paid out reasonably quickly seeing as we had a culprit.

Oh yeah and my younger brother when he was about 6 backed into a super sayer naked(sp) (ya know those calor gas heaters with the three panels). He still bears a faint scar of the imprint of the heater grille on his arse 20 years later!:D

Perhaps my favourite one is the little scar on my chin. How did I get it, I hear you ask? Cúpla year ago, on a kid's tricycle, going 90mph around in a circle - put the feet down to stop and go flying over the handlebars. Oh, the shame.

ROFL, the same thing happened me when i was 6. I got a scar on my chin. except i had an actual bike i was going too fast and pulled only the front brakes therefore flipping the bike over. That's weird..

TinCool

Fractured my skull when I was 4 (fell out my 1st floor bedroom window and landed head first on concrete path below - nearly killed myself) in ICU for 2 weeks.

Broke my right wrist when I was about 10.

Badly gashed above my right eye requiring 6 stitches (was walking out of Club 92 when my body thought I had enough and switched off. I collapsed to the ground where by my glassed dug up in to my forehead above my right eye. Blood every where).

More recently, slipped on a stairs and screwed up my upper back and sprained the **** out of my left wrist.

Numerous other bad gashes over the years from bad spills or acting the maggot as a kid.
