The Bodily Injury Thread

[AfroTree]

I have a scar on my right thumb from making candy And I got a third degree burn once.

I haven't had anything too serious. The worst I've ever had was when I tripped and my forehead ended up in the corner of a metal table. No actual brainy damage, but my skull has a little hack into it now, and while not visible unless I frown, it still creeps me out.I could be brain damaged without knowing .

Got hit in the face with a cricket bat, got attacked in the face by bees, fell down stairs (onto my face) annnnnnnd... fell on my face whilst climbing out of the bath tub.

I wonder if it has given me a deformed looking face...
*checks mirror*

HOLY CRAP!

Seriously though, those injuries were real.

I had chest surgery, it was so painful I probably would've overdosed on morphine if the machine wasn't designed to work only once every fifeteen minutes.

I got stabbed in the chin with a ballpoint pen at the age of 8 by my sister and still have a blue dot on my chin.
Broke my collar bone while walking the dog... he was a big dog!
Burnt my leg when I got off a bike on the wrong side and the exhaust burnt straight through the boot.

And I went to a Crystal Castles concert last night, still got bruised ribs.

Gave myself a butt chin by trying to breakdance on my wet swimming shorts while on holiday in Menorca when I was 6. Wet tiles are not a good surface to practice on.

I nearly broke my wrist when I fell off my bike, wierdly it didn't hurt until an hour or two later. All I remember is the teachers not beleiving me. Don't ask why it was at school or anything, can't be assed to go into an explanation.
Also the next year I tripped an a stone stabbed into my knee, giving me a permanent scar.

Had my right middle finger's outer joint mashed into potato salad at age 3... Luckily I still have it. Flipping the birdie is a lot more fun with a whole finger.

Two weeks ago I had a wipe-out on my bike, and my handlebar made contact with my inner thigh. I went into a brief medical shock from the pain, went to the emergency room and sat there for 5 hours before being told "It's just a bruise, no permanent harm done, no worries "
Then I walked limped around for a week while my inner thigh was ENTIRELY PURPLE.

Cut head open three times and have four concussions...or the other way around I don't remember. And was bitten through two heavy sweaters on my elbow(the fleshy side where your elbow would be if your palm was face up) I'm glad I had sweaters otherwise the dog wouldn't torn out something.

 

[Eumersian]

I've broken my head a few times (and quite possibly my brain, I'm kinda stupid sometimes), stabbed myself in the hand with a pencil (after I broke my head those times), and?that's it?

I can't think of any others now, but I wouldn't say that those are the only relatively bad injuries I've ever gotten.

Had a plastic bottle thrown at me and it sliced my eyebrow open somehow... needed 6 stiches.
