ahh injury storys. my mother told me she shoulda had me kept in a bubble. im 21 and heres whats gone wrong so far.

chasing my sister when i was younger, and we had this homeade wooden swing (really thick) well she ran by and and grabed it and lt it go over her head and hit me right above my right eye, right on the eyebrow. well it scalped me where skin flaped back my mom said. i dont remeber much. after it hit me i was still standing and got dizzy and fell down. thats when i passed in and out from loss of blood and didnt wake up till i was in recovery. they ended up flying in a plastc sergion for it.

then i got blood poisioning by getting a big splinter under the middle of my thumbnail. when i notticed i had B.P. i went to the ER and they ended up having to lift up my thumb nail to get the splinter out. got me outta writing for 6 weeks in school lol

my biggest one was when i was 17 in gym class, i jumped up for the ball along with 2 other people and one of them bent my knee in the air so when i landed it disloacted my knee cap, ended up tearing everything in there. the knee going out wasnt the big pain, it was them putting it back in. because he tried once and wouldnt go back in (once was enough for me) he found out it was stuck on the outside bone of your leg. so he had to push up then over while his nurse pulled on my leg.

anyways ended up doin 6 months PT to try to fix the insides. it ddnt so i had surgery (got colored pics of them working on the inside!) i now have 2 muscles in my knee, and they grinded some bone. and then had another 6 months of PT.


but cossey, thats sounds so painfull, i hate thinking about it (getting shots in your eye)

Once I managed to catch a piece of shale with the bridge of my noes. My brother and I were skipping stones, he yells duck and my first reaction was to stand up turn to him and ask, what? BAM split my noes open which needed 12 absorbable sutures inside, and 12 stiches to close the gash.

Then there was the time I was framing houses when I slapped my middle finger with a waffle head 21oz hammer so hard it burst like stepping on a june bug, damn near passed out it hurt so bad. After about 15 mins of walking it off, I wraped it in a napkin and tyvek tape and went back to work.

u reminded me when u mentioned working on the house.

i was helping out with siding a house, and we were putting the old siding back in the box, well i put a sheet back in and it was catching. so i went to back it out and slam it in and my ring finger fingernail caught a sheet and ripped right off. my finger nail didnt hurt later on, but the palm of my hand killed, guessing nerves?

fingernails.....that reminds me: when i was younger i was riding my bike on the bike path by the mohawk river. i was going pretty fast and when i went to go between those wooden posts that keep snowmobiles and such from going on the path i hit the post with my hand which was wrapped around the handlebar grips(naturally). the impact was directly on my right ring finger, which shattered the fingernail and started bleeding all over the pavement

Celtic1982citleC is an unknown quantity at this point

Sophmore yr of college playing football I was engaged in a block and had my right leg extended. A player on my team was knocked into me and I fell down. I remember looking down and my leg looked like an L at my knee with my femur sticking straight out and blood pouring out of my pants. I passed out shortly after and woke up in the hospital with a rebuilt knee after a compound fracture of my femur, shattering my kneecap, and splintering the growth plate in my knee. 6 months in a cast and 6 months of rehab. Go team.

Audiochef is on a distinguished road

i have a few sking injuries that amounted into being knocked out and coming through dealing with major concussions. my brother and i were stacking wood one time and we had this hugh shoot where he would role down the main part of the stump down to me to put on the splitter well ya i told him to hold up a min and he through it down there anyways i was picking up some nails on the concrete floor that ididnt want to step on when a 50ilb log crushed my hand, broke the very ends of my thumb and 3 fingers and lost all nails.
then my appendix became inflaimed it didnt burst but something happend to it where it started to get tangled in my intestense and expand. i fought it for 2 days like it was a pulled muscle walking around hunched over grasping my stomach thinking i could sleep it off. next day i woke up i had a full bladder couldnt piss was dissy and in extreme amounts of pain couldnt walk and kept vomitting and going into shock...later that night i went under and got it taken out.
compound fracturing my left arm and my mother saying that it was ok and refusing to take me to the hospital...it was an inconviences i guess. 5 hours later and an arm 3 times the size it became obvious something was wrong...damn that hurt...
