Have you ever injured yourself????broken bones welcome here!!

Date sort Score sort
I've never broken a bone, but once I was chasing my brother on my bike, when my shoe lace got caught in the chain. I went down and a rock split my lip right in two. My dad is a pretty hefty guy, and he gave me his shirt to hold against my lip. By the time we got home, over half of it was covered in blood, and we only lived 8-10 minutes away. (We were at my grandma's at the time.) Anyways, I got home and my mom cleaned me up, and once it was done bleeding, it wasnt too bad. Gross thing was, when I would flip my lip up, the whole thing would split in half! So I had 3 lips for a while.

One time I had a lone chick in an aquarium in my room. It was 1 AM, and the thing wouldnt stop cheeping, so I got out of bed and knuckled the tank. Im stupid, I know,lol. The whole tank shattered and cut my ring finger on my left hand, down to the bone. It was horrible. I ran into my parents room, gushing blood all over my feet and the carpet. My mom got up so fast, that she ran to the bathroom to vomit and passed out by the toilet. Luckily, we got it cleaned up and the chick slept in bed with me that night.
 
Well lets see.........Broke my right pnky finger twice, playing baseball.
Broke a couple of bones in my right foot, playing football.
Tore my ACL (right) doing somthing really stupid
Got my right foot in a lawn mower and had 3 toes sewn back on
(well they were never off but only skin was holding them on)
Broke my jaw in a car wreck on Christmas eve (1980)
and Had 27 stitches in the back of my head (fell backwards off a box in my
grandparents storage building and my head went through a fish
aquarium)
Oh yeah, got my nose broke(in a fight)
 
I broke my wrist in gym class sliding into first base on wet grass. I pretended I wasn't hurt. (My shyness). But I wanted to puke. I broke my left ring finger in gym in H.S. bouncing a basketball against the wall and it came back and whacked my finger. I hated gym class.

I was 11 when I jumped off a bulkhead onto the beach sand and received a giant splinter in my foot. Went to E.R. and Dr. took out splinter, but not all of it, so a few days later I couldn't walk on it, it was infected. I was afraid to tell my Mom, so I did the "operation" on myself. I guess I did all right, I just have a small hole on the bottom of my foot.

Wow Carugoman, my hat's off to you.

I almost ran out of the room when I read the tick/grape thing!

When I was a kid I, my twin and I would go down to the brook down the street and try to collect things in the water, well we found a few tadpoles and took them home and filled a wheelbarrow with water and released the tadpoles into it. Later on one of them somehow got out and was flopping on the ground, I didn't realize it and stepped on it and it literally popped and an eye and whatever was behind the eye - a long vein like thing shot out. I felt so bad but was so grossed out and kept scrubbing my foot for days.
 
In '05, on Christmas Eve (of all days!!), I slid down on black ice. That chipped my tail bone, and broke my wrist.... let's just say, I didn't have a very merry Christmas

I have also shut my hand in the car door which broke my thumb and cut it and a couple of fingers.
Oh, and I was knocked out before from walking too close to a few guys playing basket ball

- I heard my name yelled, but all I remember is turning my head to see what it was, then the next thing I remember is opening my eyes to be laying on the ground with a whole crowd of people around me and my head being verrry sore.

They lost my heartbeat when I was born. It was there, the doofbutts just couldn't find it. They put a monitor on my head - 17 years later and my hair is still thin right there.
 
When I was nine, my mom took me horse back riding for my birthday...fell off the horse landed on the pavement, spent three weeks in traction for a broken arm and several weeks ddoing physiotherapy for the nerve damage.

Broke front tooth bicycling
Fell off a wagon loaded with loose hay; concussion, lacerations (no stitches) and a broken tooth.
Went thru a glass door, fell on the broken glass, many stiches.

I was not the accident prone child. My brother was much worse. My poor, poor mother.
 
Okay, the tick thing and the cat box made me gag...and I caught my toddler son eating a half-dead cockroach once, so there ya go.

Perfect grace runs in my family. My dad taught me well.

When I was two, we were in a wreck that resulted in me having a head injury. I still have a dent and a semi-circular scar on the right side of my head. It was the old man's fault when he ran a red light and t-boned my mom's side of the truck. My mom ended up with teeth knocked out, her right femur shattered, and her elbow went through the passenger window. She was still picking glass out of her arm in 1982. My dad didn't get a scratch.

I stepped on a nail when I was about 5.

About the same time, I fell on a floor heater and burned a grid onto my right arm. The scars were there for a few years.

Had my bottom tooth broken when a girl smacked the bottom of the Coke bottle while I was drinking from it. Had the back of my top tooth sheared off when my brother bounced up and hit my chin with is head.

I somehow bruised the whole back of my right calf when I was around 10. I remember it hurting one day, and when I looked, the whole back side of it was black.

I sprained my right ankle about the same time while riding my step-brother's bike. I remember it hurting when I fell, but not enough to stop me, apparently. By late evening, after we came in for the day, it started swelling and turning black, and couldn't walk on it. My dad didn't take me to the doctor while at his house, and my mom never took me when I got home. I still have issues with that arch.

I fell on a step-cousin's bike and stabbed myself in the sternum with the gripperless handle bar. I thought I had killed myself, but just knocked the wind out of me and put a big round bruise there.

I had a boy's three speed Mom had bought me. I slipped on the pedals one day and found out girls can hurt down there pretty bad too!

I skinned up my left arm on a slide at a waterpark when I was 11. I still have the scars. If any one were to really look, it would like I tried to slash my wrist. I have a scar on my right hand from my aunt's pool slide.

I burned the outside of my right thigh on a go-cart muffler. It was a 1" x 1" square, and you could see the screw head in the middle. The scar is finally gone.

I sliced the side of my left index finger open with a knife trying to whittle a stick. No stitches, but it took a few years for the feeling to come back completely. Recently, I stabbed myself behind the first knuckle of my thumb, this time with a carving blade. I taped it together, and all I have is a thin scar.

I stabbed myself in the left pinky with a pair of scissors trying to dismember a Barbie doll. (Don't ask.)

I fell off a spooked pony and stabbed my left wrist on a nail in a board.

I caught my right foot in a chain-link fence while riding a 3 wheeler. If not for my shoe, I think I would have broken all my toes, but I think I did actually break the big one. It hurt so bad, I was afraid to take off my shoe. All my toes were very bruised. I broke my left pinky toe a few years ago goofing around with my brother. It turned black and took a full year to heal.

I spent the night with my best friend, and we were goofing around in her room. I was playing like I fainted, but when I did, I forgot about the little table in her room. I cracked the base of my skull on it and saw stars and gave myself a knot the size of an egg. What was weird about it was that I heard the sound very clearly before the pain kicked in. Years later, I had an actual fainting spell and put another egg on my head.

I pulled my back carrying my son as a toddler. I was in misery for two weeks.

I had a ruptured ovarian cyst back in May. That was the worst pain I've ever had.

The worst self-caused pain: I was hanging a plant up on our apartment patio, and I used one of our metal dining chairs. The backs were styled with a tube pointing up on each side. When I stepped down, I forgot which side the back of the chair was on and sat straight down on one of those tubes! I literally thought I had perforated my behind, but luckily I just put a massive black bruise on my butt! Ask me, and I can tell you how NOT to sit on a chair!

I stabbed myself in the left palm on my nanny goat. Yes, you read that correctly!

I can see the good luck in everyones future. I have some more fond memories. When I was 4 I almost made it in the gunness book of work records for swallowing the most pennies. Then they came back up. My mom said my favorite ones where the blue colored. I guess she saw the mostly blue ones come back up
