Broken Bones

JoJoYZF · 12-02-2008, 04:50 PM

Since I seem to have a lot of friends who have never broken a single bone, who here has? They dont have to be due to bike accidents, just in general.

Ive broken my pinky playing backyard football (just taped it up and let it heal), may have broken a finger during basketball (once again just taped them, so those Im not sure if they were truly broken), buckle fractured my left wrist playing baseball and most recently, broke my left eye socket from a sledding accident.

basically all my fingers, a few toes and collar bone

Never. Not sure how I managed to avoid it. I guess I just really despise pain that much

Particle Man · 12-02-2008, 04:54 PM

never.

I've sprained, torn, and dislocated a ton of stuff if that helps.

'course, now I just jinxed myself...

When I was 5 (just a couple weeks before starting Kindergarten), I was at my day school, climbing around in a big net/treehouse. They yelled up to me that my Gramma was there to pick me up for swimming lessons, so I hurriedly scrambled out of the net, falling through a large hole, and landing on my back (some 10' below) with my arm bent behind my back.

I wailed and cried, and my Gramma thought I was being over-dramatic, so she ignored me. My mom was outta town, and I was spending the night at my Aunt's house that night. I cried and cried, and she, too, thought I was crying wolf.

(Note the pattern here). Finally the next day when I was still wailing, she took me to the Doctor -- arm was broken clear across, just above the elbow.

Then when I was about 14, I was at school, hanging out with a friend just before 1st period. It was winter, and there was some patchy ice on the sidewalk. We went running around a corner and I slid and landed on my ass. Went to first period, where I had a Substitute teacher for Spanish. My hand and wrist were all swollen (my left hand, and I'm a Lefty) but she was a total bitch, and just told me to do my work with my right hand.

After class, I was in massive pain, so I went to the nurse's office so they could call my Mom. Turned out it wasn't my hand at all, but my elbow - I shattered the radial head.

Pinky and ring finger on my left hand in 2nd grade. Ulna and radius of my right arm coming home from school on the last day of 5th grade. Spent the whole summer in a cast that went up to my armpit.

Every fucking finger & some 2 or 3 times. A couple of broken toes. I fractured my right elbow once & didn't find out about that until years later when I got an xray for another possible fracture/break
