• What was your worst injury?

When I was 4-6, I was swimming with my sister in some sea. Because some lazy fuckers dumped broken glass in the sea, I stepped on a very sharp broken bottle when getting out. I don't remember anything else from that time other than having a large cut and my mom covering my foot with a towel. I still remember that to this day.
I had a finger nail torn out once. Sliced my heel down to the bone was another fun one.
My appendix ruptured inside of me while I was running. I didn't notice until a few days later, does that count?
My chest was carved open for a heart surgery when I was six. If that doesn't count, I broke both bones in my left arm and had my right wrist cut open in an accident. Fortunately no major vessels or nerves were damaged.
I have three of them. One time I fell off my bike and had a pebble stuck in the palm of my hand. Another time a kid threw a text book at me in school. A corner hit me and split my forehead open. Lastly, we were playing foot hockey(dunno what you'd call hockey that isn't on ice) in high school. Someone tripped me with a stick and cause me to slam the back of my head on a water fountain. No bleeding or anything from that one, but I've been kind of messed up in the head since.
[QUOTE=Mr.95;42357585]My appendix ruptured inside of me while I was running. I didn't notice until a few days later, does that count?[/QUOTE] So, how did you notice it?
I guess another one happened that I forgot to tell of. It was someone's birthday, or some sort of event when I was 3 years old. My sister who was 5 at the time was slamming a door when my pinky was in it. I can't remember that much else of that day, but I do remember going to the doctor, and some people put a large sponge on my hand then did something. But, this memory could be false if I was 3 at the time.
I got hit in the groin during one of my baseball practices, probably not the smartest move to play baseball with a pitcher that has a hell of a fast ball but can't really aim. ughhhh the one day I forget to bring my cup.

I literally put my hand through a glass door panel as a kid. Was lucky enough it didn't hit any major veins or arteries. It was a really close call in the wrist area though. And I still have those scars as a memento.
fell onto a bike handle nearly internally punctured my stomach liquid diet for a week
not counting disease it would be a hit and run which resulted in a hair fracture or my left collarbone, that was like 10 years ago.
[QUOTE=laurencedgreat;42356556]It's called a sunburn[/QUOTE] I had a really bad sunburn about 3 months ago from going to a beach party, I was sleeping in the sun for only half an hour, and I thought I put sunscreen on the back of my legs after swimming. Next thing I know, my legs started feeling weird. By the end of the day when it got cold I lost all of my body heat and driving home was painful. I couldn't sleep for a week after that, and it peeled for at least a month. Going to work was miserable since I had to wear jeans for my uniform. Now I have even more freckles and a terrible tan line where my board shorts were. It was easily a 2nd degree and almost 3rd in some places. (Like where my knees bend it peeled like 4 times and was a bit raw.) Oh, the joys of being a red-headed Irish/German.
Broke my right arm in 3 places when I was 5 by jumping off a slide, catching my foot, and landing on it hand first
Fractured my shoulder being a moron. I was swinging from some poles in an open shed during primary school. We got there by jumping from the benches. I did it successfully a few times, got cocky and fucked up. Ergo I slipped and fucked my shoulder for a good month or so.
Got another one here, i was riding around in the mud on my little dirtbike that i used to have, sold it off several years ago. I had a friend riding on a 3-wheeled ATV following me. I hit a patch of really thin mud, being stupid i hit the brakes. There was a 100ft long skid mark all the way to my crash site. The worst part of the crash wasn't actually the crash, it was the 3-wheeled ATV with my 200lb friend on it going over my head and body that really fucked me up. I didn't need a hospital visit, but i think i received a concussion and i think i shattered part of my lower jaw. It felt strange for years after that, but now it's kinda deformed, not hideously, but if i feel the part that i think was shattered, it's kinda smaller and more rough feeling compared to the other side, which wasn't involved with the underside of a 3-wheeled ATV tire.
slammed my penis into a wall
Was like 13 or 14 playing football and was one of the smaller kids on the team, and the coach decided to put me in the middle of a circle and had like ten kids taking shots at me. I was barely standing until the last guy speared me and I'm pretty sure I was out for like three seconds, next thing I knew someone had me by the neck and was dragging me off the field. I've taken a few hits but that was by far the worst I've ever had. Honestly I wish I just told that coach to fuck himself because looking back now I know for a fact that it kind of messed with my head.
I broke one of my ribs and got pneumonia about a week after. Blunt for sure. Worst kind of blunt there is.
[QUOTE=Bat-shit;42358227]So, how did you notice it?[/QUOTE] I didn't know exactly at first, but when I walked out into my living room to watch colbert report and eat breakfast then I keeled over in pain while projectile vomiting, I kind of got the hint.

Fucking was painful as hell.[/QUOTE] Holy shit holy shit oh my god jesus. I don't have any memorable injury but there was this one thing that happened to my brother. He was picking his ear with one of those cotton bud things when he was young and somehow slammed his ear against a wall with it hanging out of his ear. No actual ear injury occurred luckily.
Fell in some stairs as a child and landed on a sharp edge, ended up not being that bad. But I have a pretty badass scar now
I've never had a major accident, even though I've played about 20 or so total seasons of various sports in my life. The worst thing that happened was during Cub scout winter camp, while sledding. I was going like 40 mph and ran right into a telephone pole. My right shin turned purple, and I lost feeling in it for about a year. Wasn't broken though. Perhaps the shins just don't have much feeling to begin with? Weirdest medical condition tho was when I was 5 and I rubbed these weird rocks on my balls and my sack swelled up to the size of a pool ball [I]package swag[/I]
Not me, but my english teacher stepped on a landmine in vietnam, and is missing his leg below the knee. He showed us the stump at the end of the year and a jar full of shrapnel from the blast.
I've never had it too bad. Oddly enough, though, my ankle caught fire when I was four.

Back in primary school some fucker pushed me off a 1-1,5 meter high 'wall' ([URL="http://i.imgur.com/lcQefOs.png"]looked a bit like this[/URL]) I landed on my back and I couldn't breathe for what felt like 5 minutes
I had some really nasty arc eye once [img]http://imgkk.com/i/1cha.jpg[/img] not my picture but that's what it looked like
I cracked my ribs once.
