What's your worst injury??
« on: Sep 11, 2007, 06:43PM »
Well this topic popped into my head after i had burned my leg on the motorbike exhaust. This burn was a 2nd degree burn and it fucken hurt!! Practically paralized me for 5 days or so, which was uncool, still didnt stop me from walking, driving and doing other things.

So as the topic states, what is your worst injury, meaning do you have an story to tell regarding your injury, a photo perhaps of the scar to date, maybe even when it happened or shorty after.

Here is mine:

Was a fine EKKA Day Wednesday here in Brissy and myself and a mate decided to go riding before i fly over to NZ (on Saturday morning), went to our usual spot and did the usual shit we do. But this day was different, we did more exploring and rode further then previous times. On the way back after a good 2 hour non stop up and down steep rocky hill ride we decided to start making our way back to the ute.

On the way back i could feel how hot the engine was getting as my bum was getting pretty warm, then we came up to the hill which i have always hated as there is alot to dodge and gotta go pretty slow up it. At about half way up i started slowing down and had my legs out for balance, then suddenly out of nowhere a sump popped up, my left leg getting caught on it and pulled that leg in between the exhaust (just as it comes out of the engine) and the rear break lever. The burn was instantaneous and there was nothing i could do but pull me leg out. On the day it looked nasty but no pain. But it wasnt the story the next few days.

Got back home, showed the missus (blah blah blah, thats what you get for not having protective gear). Yes that right, went riding with nothing more then a t-shirt, old shorts and old shoes. Guess ive learnt now!! Bike boots here i come.

The end result is a pretty scar on my leg, here is a photo of what i looked like the next day.

My worst injury is snapping three metatarsals in my left foot last year (february 9th at 8.45pm to be exact).
   I was playing oztag (a nice low risk of injury sport) and I was the right winger, one of my mates passed the ball, I took of for the try line and I stepped into a hole, I felt my bones snap but I kept running because it didn't register that I snapped some bones straight away. I crossed try line and rolled onto my back and my foot started throbbing so I did what any 18 yr old male would do and started crying cause it hurt. :-[
    I was helped to the sideline and then went to hospital for Xrays.

In the end it was 4 months off work and cost me $2500 in doctors fees and casts/walking braces. And I didn't score the try, my tag was ripped off >:(.

And next week I have a bone scan to see if it needs to be re-broken and surgically pinned back together, because it has been playing up for the last 3 months or so.

Why is there a hole on the field your playing on?  It shits me that there is no oztag stuff in Vic, Geelong specifically... as it looks like fantastic fun.

A foot injury must suck however, seriously restricting your mobility.

I got the record for worst clavical fracture at the womans and childrens hospital in Adelaide lol  ;D

Story goes:

I had a day off school for careers day and I was getting pretty into mountain bikeing so I decided to go dirt jumping with my $200 repco mountain bike. So the following is my stupid fault.

So I jumped onto my bike, picked the biggest tabletop and went for it, hit the ramp got mass air hit the landing ramp and the forks snapped of at the headstem I hit the deck left shoulder first felt a crunch and got knocked out for a few seconds.

So I sat up had a look around my bike was a sorry site and I didnt feel to bad so I chucked my backpack on my shoulder and It just fell back, So I realised my collar bone didnt exist anymore but It didnt hurt which was weird so I freaked out a bit and ran to the local shops to the chemist and asked for a lift to the local doctors, they asked me what was wrong and I told them, they wanted a look so I took off my shirt and almost got sick I didnt realise the bone was throu the skin where It meets ur neck so they rushed me to the hospital got it operated on It ended up being broken in 4 places and severe nerve damage which is why I couldnt feel it.

In recovery I had med students pokeing me because it was the worst fracture of the kind recorded the second worst was a hurdles jumper, and for putting up with that I got to play nintendo for a week.

So all in all I now own a $2500 mountain bike that wont snap, It took 8 months to get feeling a muscle back into my left side, now Im pretty well A1 except my left shoulder is 1 inch shorter than my right lol

And its the only bone ive ever Broken  ;D       Ignore the spelling plzz

Moral of the story is GET THE RIGHT EQUIPTMENT FOR THE JOB !!

Wow these are some nasty stories.  Worst i've done is only a snapped off tooth from taking a dive at basketball.

My brother has had all the injuries.
- 2 cracked vertabre
- smashed ankle from doing a BMX jump, they wanted to put in a steel plate as a heel, he refused but came out alright.
- 3rd degree burns to 80% of his back from burning deisil engulfing his scissor lift. (he's a demolitions worker)

Because Penrith council look after the fields. I don't know why it was there, it just was and I found it. It was not a proper field, pretty much a reserve with the fields marked by witches hats/cones. And oztag is heaps of fun, in QLD I will try to sign up to play again pending how my foot is.
 I was supposedly covered by sports insurance from 'Sports Insurance Australia' (anyone delt with them) and they said they would pay medicals but then backflipped and I had to pay. If foot needs surgery which is highly likely then we are speaking to some lawyers.

Well I don't have any huge injuries but some of the followign are half decent:

- Rollerblading down a hill and chin planting on concrete (7 stitches);
- Bit of ligament damage after landing on the side of my foot after trying to pull of a lay-up in basketball.

I did my ACL (Anterior cruciate ligament - knee) playing football, not nasty story, I simply jumped up to mark a ball and landed in a way which snapped the ligament in half. There was little pain, just extreme instability in the knee - as in it would buckle with every step I took. Long story short I got a knee reconstruction in august last year and now it's back in tip top condition and I'm starting to train for football next year.

Let me just say - any injury that prevents you from exercising sucks, I'm soooo unfit now and I've stacked on the weight. Hopefully I'll be able to get rid of it all and get the fitness back up.

Apart from that the worst injury's would be sprained fingers etc. :P

I havent really had any major injuries like Breaks or anything, ive had one set of stitches and a long term problem.

Stitches were from cricket, out of all sports. Two of us went to field it, i called it he slid and his spikes went straight into my knee, only one dug in enough for stitches. Got somethin like 5 or 6 of em. Knee bones look good though  :P

Long term problem was that Osteitis Pubis thing. Very painful when your like 12 years old and your parents say its growing pains. When they finally take you to the doctor he says that it will take a very long time to heal the damage id done, and it wont ever be 100% again. Now randomly i get aches on the left side of my groin, and cant do anything about them. Played like half a year with the thing, hurts a bloody lot.

Other than that, few nasty sprains here and there. As i said, nothing real major as of yet.

Actually wait....I do have a good story  ;D

I used to work in a Coles deli. One afternoon I was heaps tired and not really with it when i get told to slice some meat up. The way the meat slicer works is you bring this handle over and pull it hard into the meat to prevent it from sliding all over the place. The end that goes into the meat has many small spikes on it.

Well I wasn't concentrating and I pulled the handle over and slammed it into the top of my fingers. I punctured the top of 4 fingers, the spikes went straight into the top of them. So i called a "code blue" (first aid). The lady was like, "hey your doing really well, by this time people have normally feinted". Then I felt all woozy  ;D .

So I went and got a cup of water with sugar in it, put some bandaids over the punctures, cleaned up the blood and got back to work  ::)

Sik_bb_trx they say the collar bone is the easiest bone to brake.

My worse is minor scholerios (slight bend in my spine nothing major) which has caused sprained lower back muscles.
I've had days were i have been unable to walk
The worse thing about it is due to my weight and build i can easily injure the muscles along my back from random actions.
Normally takes 3 weeks of painkillers, anti inflamitorys and beer to make a full recovery

I've had a couple of bad ones.

1) Year 6 at primary school, me and a mate were playing with a basketball round near the classrooms. Now, these classrooms were the ones built out of bricks...so...as I have ran to pick up the ball off the ground (him not far behind me) a little shove in the back, a crunching noise, straight on my arse. Now the very top point of my head hit the corner bend of the bricks..that's when the blood trickles down my forehead. I instantly rub my head, it hurt so that's what you do, in shock so no pain...as I pulled my hand down covered in blood, the face on my friend was priceless. Standing there, shaking, saying sorry every second word and white as anything. Taken to the office, mum takes me to the hospital. 12 stitches in my head, slight indent from the bang and yeah, a crap load of blood lost. Slept for a good 2 days  ;D

The best part was, when I go back to school finally, there is a chunk of skin and hair still stuck to the wall and a blood trail for a good 250m from the classroom to the office.

Others have been broken bones (fingers, collar-bone, arm, left leg and slip disc in my spine all from Moto-X)

LOL!  I've had a front fork stress fracture and 'kink' to the right while racing... but didn't break, so I had the time to slow the fuck down and get off my bike!

Oh, I have another one :P  Thrashing my MTB on gravel, flipping the tail from side to side for an extended distance, just goofing off.  Then front wheel decided it wanted to turn sideways when I hit an bump that (I think) must have been hidden in a shadow from tree lining the path.

Went head first over the handlebars, going quite quickly.  Landed almost entirely on my hands and my chin.

Had the charming old massive flap of skin/meaty'ness hanging off where I had landed.  Was full of this fine red gravel stuff that I was riding on as well.  So strolled over to a tap near the path in someones front yard, washed the gravel out and my mates rang my mum once they saw how bad it was  :D Off to the doctor we go  ::)

I've got two 'worst' injuries.

One was coming off my bike at about 50km/h at the bottom of my street. Landed on the left side of both my knees, inside of my big toe (I was wearing thongs), outside of my left arm, my belly and the left side of my face, splitting my eyebrow. The handle bars went into my hip too, bruising it. Walked home and mopped most of the blood off myself in the bathroom, then sat down cos I was feeling faint. Got 4 stiches in my eyebrow and the doc scrubbed my gravel rash with gauze to get the gravel out.

The other one is open heart surgery to correct Atrial Septal Defect.

your eye is like devil red in the second pic jono......Ive had heaps and heaps of injuries.

1. All my toes and fingers have been broken from martial arts (Trying to break a board wrong usually does it)

2. dislocated ankle, Cracked ribs, Sprained Elbows, wrists, Ankles

3. Broken jaw from a kick in the face out a kickboxing tournament

4. This is my worst by far When i was seven or eight we had a break up party for martial arts.... anyways it was a pool party and i was showing off to my cousin and she was teaching me backflips into the pool. I finally got it and when i jump some one ran past and freaked me out and i fliped to close to the edge And landed on the top of my head on the corner of the pool..... i blacked out in the pool and when they pulled me out the pool was red i lost alot of blood. Anywayz my dad quickly calls off the party cause he was the instructor and takes me to hospital where i get 42 stitches... I will get a photo of it later... There is alot more injuries but cant think of them out the moment

well, me stoopid ass left knee....

in 2001 i snapped me anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in me left knee playing soccer, resulting in a full knee reconstruction. half way thru rehab, i snapped me hamstring graft i had to replace ACL. so then in 2003 i finally got around to gettin it fixed. then just recently (about 4 months ago) i had a crash on me mtb whilst racing and snapped me knee cap tendon graft that i had to replace the hamstring graft (which replaced the ACL in the first place!)

so now i'm lookin down the barrel of having a 3rd knee reco, options being either taking hamstring tendons from me right leg to put in me left knee; synthetic graft; dead person's tendons in me knee! - theres some wierd medical term for that, but i forget it!

surgeon wants to operate asap, but i really dont wanna go thru it all again - tho in the long term, will prob benefit me more than NOT doin anythin about it. meh, if i can still ride me pushy, go scuba diving and use a clutch, then i dont see meself havin the 3rd reco anytime soon

These stories are great!!  What funny is that everyone calls their mum, i would rather call my dad as i'd know that mum would freak out, where as dad would just do whats necessary.


So I went and got a cup of water with sugar in it,

Was that for you or for the punctures?? That would hurt too, do you have little scar marks on your fingers.

Wish i had more stories, but........oh wait i do have one more, nothing serious but i did see bone.

When i was....ummm...think about 15 or so, me and a mate went to our local indoor swimming pools. We had a awesome time swimming around and doing stupid things that we usually do. At one point i think we were chasing eachother in the pool playing tiggy or something. Anyways i got out, was laughing at him as he couldnt get me and as i was walking around the edge of the pool i stood into a hole between the water drain things, someone removed one as a cruel joke to my shin. Anyways, stood into it, the sharp plastic ripped back about 5cm of my skin from my right shin, thats when i saw bone..
Funnily enough it didnt start bleeding straight away. Went home as if nothing happened and when i got home, after the shower it all started, the blood, the pain. I was a little sook, so i cried as usual. Mum (there she goes again) put on a gause and bandaged it all up. Good ol' mother..

Thats so true.

After I rode home after snapping my left wrist, my dads looked at it and was like "you'll be alright, its only sprained badly" etc etc...

Anyway, it hurt more and more and more... then mum came home, took one look at the swelling and took me to the hospital :P

Yeh ive done something really similar where i cut my shin open from knee to ankle on a piece of metal.
Bone could be seen in a few places. Mum strapped it up, my dad feints around blood.
Then i played T-ball 3 days later.

In year 6 i sprained my ankle riding my friends bike, so i was  on crutches for a week,
and about 3 years ago i fractured/bent my left collar bone(clavicle) trying to tackle some guy who was twice the size of me playing football :P was in a sling for 3-4 wks, but the doctor told me that it would take 2-3 years for it to heel back to the original place (something like that anyway).

Actually, Ive heard another one, not hapenning to me but a friends boss.
He is doing a chef apprenticeship and one day, the head chef is mopping the floors, walking slowly backwards as he mops calmly.
Suddenly a splash and a scream as he trips over a huge drum full of deep frying oil that has just been flushed from deep fryers.

Now if you sit in a bin, your entire hip region up to the chest and part of your thighs are in it...thats what go t covered in burning hot oil.

Needless to say he isn't a chef anymore...

I once cut my finger nails to short and my finger bleeded =. (

pussy!!! Harden up.

My gf got trampled on by a steer, yes a bull with no balls. She was about 15 and at school they had a farm class. She had the steer by the chain and it started misbehaving, the teacher told her to pull down on the chain but the steer retaliated and instead trampled on her, breaking her ankles and putting her front tooth thru her bottom lip. Now she has a little scar just under her bottom lip.

when i was sixteen i was out fishing with a mate, we were walking back in when i sliped and went face first into the rocks.
I was a bit shaky and there was a fair bit of blood but all my mate had to say was "thats a bit nasty"
we were on pushys so half way home he has declaired hes hungry so we stop for a burger on the way, i still dont feel so good so i  just have a coke.
I was getting the shits cause people were staring and when i went to drink most of the coke dribbled down my front.
After his burger we set off home when we get there my mum freaks out , im telling her its ok stop carrying on , she tells me to go and look in the mirror.
Ive got a piece of my lower lip the size o a fifty cent piece hanging off, i can clearly see my teeth and gums through the hole.
so 30 stitches later and 700 bucks of dental work later

I was out on the beach, climbing up rocks and shit down at the southernmost point of wilson's prom, it's like an hours walk away from the nearest campsite, ages away from anything else, one of my mates was climbing underneath me when i slipped (in my barefeet) down this crevice thing we were trying to chimney up. Ended up landing on her with one side of my body, and slicing up my whole other side of the body. had a massive flap of skin hanging off my foot and big toe, bleeding all from the leg and arm and body, but it didn't hurt that much, so I just washed it in the sea and was ready to walk home. All my friends were freaking out though, so I let 'em bandage it up and stuff (partially with electrical tape, we didn't have a very big first aid kit) and proceeded to walk back to our campsite, and then the next day, the 8hour hike back to where our main campsite was. Went and saw the doctor and he was like "i can't believe you walked on this, it's terrible blah blah blah" and gave me some stitches. Everyone else are such pussies. and the chick wasn't too badly off, just some nice purple bruising all down one side :P good thing she was buxom and I had a nice soft landing :P

it seems all my bad injuries happen to my feet, but. The only other one I've done is when we were playing hacky sack with a rock (really great idea, but whatever, we were at swimming sports at school) and it was quite a big rock, at least a few kg's, but I kicked it really badly with my big toe and just snapped it. I couldn't be bothered going to the doctors, so I've now got this permanently bent toe. It's all good, didn't hurt after a year or so.

Wait, I lie, the other injury I had was when I was kicking a ball into the air, and managed to kick it up ~40feet into the air and into a tree canopy and dislodge a stick which, while i was looking up, struck me right across the face, a slash across the eye socket style. I was so hoping it would scar, and I would become an evil looking mofo, that would've been the best talking point scar ever, but it disappeared after a few months :( bled like a mofo though. So lucky it didn't hit my eye.

yea my mate Dave was pretty bullet proof, we were once using an old style bead breaker (crowbar for the less technical)taking tires off rims.
when he managed to put the bar through his leg starting at his calf and coming out of the sole of his foot,
I dropped my beer, his brother threw up, his mother went ape shit and when we asked him how he was all he said was 'IT STINGS A BIT" I wasn't really surprised that my slab of lip hanging off didn't freak him

i was jumping off the play set thing we had at school and some clown thought it was a mad idea to try and pull be back after i had jumped, so he grabbed me by the collar and i fell backwards and landed horizontally on my back, my wrist landed underneath me pointing downwards and my arm broke.
i remember being told to 'go get a drink of water' by the teacher, so i did, and surprise surprise my arm wasnt any less broken. eventually i had to lie down and they finally gave in to my crying and called my mum, who blew up at them because she was a nurse and could tell it was obviously broken.

schools are funny like that. similar thing happened to me in primary school and they called my mum after copious amounts of screaming on my behalf. on the phone they said 'oh, i dont mean to alarm you, but we think rebecca's arm is broken' ok thinks mum. she rocks up and here i am thoroughly enjoying a paddle pop with a demented arm thats has bone almost poking through. so i can see how they weren't sure about the brokeness.  ::)

ive had my fair share of broken crap: Left wrist, right hand, fractured scull, many many broken fingers and toes, a rib, nose, torn ligaments in ankles, hammies..etc etc

My worst is the on i have now, broken my right wrist at soccer last june, i left it for about 3 months cos i thought it was a sprain, after 3 months, the pain was still there so i went to the doctors, got xrays, and found out id broken the scaphoid bone in half. The scaphoid is only a small bone, about the size of a medium sized walnut, but its one of 2 bones that link the thumb bone to the radius. The biggest issue is that if the bottom half of the bone is dead (the blood flows back through this bone..towards the heart), it will have to be removed entirely and a scaphoid prostheisis made, if not, it will just be a matter of a putting a metal pin through to join the pieces.

shits me off though, ive had to deal with it for over a year and now they bring me in for surgery, right when soccer finals start, and the new oztag season has kicked off...dirty bastards

yeah i did the same.. only i may or may not have climbed onto to the roof of a church and may or may not have later fallen off... also may or may not have been very intoxicated at the time.

and no i dont know why for either... all i remember is being dragged home face first by mates arguing weather or not to take me to hospital.

other than that numerous gashes, grazes etc from moutain biking... (can't move my knee right now from when the rear brake lines burst this afternoon)

Time to update this shit mother-bitches!!

This is my right wrist, managed to do this on Saturday night.



Throwing a footy around with mates down at Eastern Beach in Geelong.  It was dark so we had taped the ball with some thin aluminum tape so it was shiny under the mild lighting down on the big open grassed area.

Played for about 45mins then a mate at the opposite end to me skyed the ball.  I took off towards it like a rocket... ended up directly colliding with the mate who kicked the ball who was trying to catch it as well!!!!  How fucking retarded is that!!

Anyway, rushed to emergency because we could tell that it was broken (obviously!!) and they let me straight through because of how bad it looked despite the shit-load of people waiting, a typical saturday night in the emergency room!.

End of my radius where it joins the bones of my hand was broken into 3 sections.  Its now pinned with 3 steel wires in my hand.  Cast will be a 6 weeker and my BAC was only 0.083 when they bretho'ed me before giving me some morphine.

Typing with my left hand only is slow and tedious!!!
 
Plus, I am currently in the middle of a 4 week final placement for my Dip Ed in primary teaching.  So that has been pushed back a little ::)  I've also broken my left wrist before... but not as bad as this.  Time for some more narcotic based painkillers, i can 'feel' the steel in my wrist rubbing on my cast :(
