Have you ever broken a bone?

Question

PeachyPie93 · Accepted Answer

No surprisingly not, even though I fell out of trees, hit jumps and crashed on my bike, fell off fences, fell off trampolines. I do drink a lot of milk, not sure that actually does anything for bones? lol and I kind of know how to land properly. Last time I fell off the trampoline I was 23, my brother in law and his friend jumped at the same time and I flew off lol
In my old age if I was to fall down now I would probably break something, so I don't do dangerous things anymore :D I did fall on my knee 2 times in 2 months in the same place on the sidewalk (there is like a hole) lol I got a huge bruise and my knee was sore for a good 6 months after.

Yes. But I don't like to talk about it.  Shit happens.

No but I've gotten close probably the closest I got was when I got punched in the face one time during a sparring match I went to the bathroom because I thought I broke my nose turns out a pierce of cartilage had cut it's way out of my nose but was still attached. There was no real way to put it back in my nose correctly so I just braced my nose yanked the piece out and reset my nose. Then went back to it.

Was a pretty painful experience to be honest but it healed fairly decently. honestly given how many injuries I've had over the years I'm genuinely surprised I've never broken a bone.

Broke my hand twice. Pretty sure I broke my pinky toe once too.

Didn’t turn out to be a bone, but back when I played semipro football, I broke/tore (?) the cartilage of two of my lower ribs off of my sternum, so I have a sweet dent in my rib cage, haha. Doctor said it was ok and didn’t need surgery at that point, and that my organs would shift to accommodate it. AWESOME, lmfao

I broke part of my nose in 6th grade when a girl and I collided in tag football. She was just the right height where her forehead crashed into my nose. It was slightly crooked for a while (I didn't go to the nurse or anything, I told my parents when I got home and the pain didn't go away).

Fast forward a year, my little brother accidentally elbowed my nose and straightened it :D

I broke my arm once falling off of monkey bars. I wasn't going to do them because I knew I had a bag grip but my siblings were doing it and my dad wanted me to do he pretty much made me and I told him that if I fell and broke my arm it would be his fault. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Kulotz · Answer

yes, my left wrist. I broke it when I was 9 or 10. We didn't understand I broke it for a while because only one bone was broken, and my parents brought me doctor when they realized it was growing upwards, they realized it from my skin. The doctor broke my other bone to put plaster.

Lynx122 · Answer

Yes, in my arm. I've had a bunch of other injuries that had similar consequences to braking a bone but they were not broken bones. Like twisting my ankle badly or overstretching my ligaments in my leg etc.

Blueeyes81 · Answer

Yes and have lost count. But I will give it a go. 5 broken arms. Broken foot. Numerous broken toes. Broken thumb. I'm sure I missed a few in there.

dreamstar72 · Answer

Broken three ribs
Does this also count was in a full arm cast (tip of fingers to just below my shoulder) for a month and half. Why because I cut my thumb washing a drinking glass, it was a little embarrassing when people asked what happened.

Chazmatazz269 · Answer

Nothing major. I’ve broken a toe, which i think technically counts as a dislocation. I’ve fractured metacarpals. A full-on break of an actual bone though? Negative.

JacobJordan · Answer

I chipped my ankle years ago falling out of a tree. Landed on my feet but rolled my left ankle and the compression chipped a little piece off along with spraining it.

bolverk · Answer

Yes - my left knee cap, and pinkie, ring, and middle finger on each hand. Though given my career (Heavy Engineering) its surprising that I have not had any other serious injuries.

NathanDavis · Answer

probably... a toe at least, micro-fracture, for sure

ProbablyClueless · Answer

Nope. I drink milk and lift weights. I avoid dumb and dangerous situations. ... and I've been lucky, so far. Hope I never have to deal with something like that.

Fireguy17 · Answer

A couple 2 3 ribs. I've had a number of stitches, a few surgeries to fix stuff.

AviatorTom · Answer

I've been very lucky. Never broke a bone. I've pulled muscles, gotten bruises and tore tendons, but never a bone break.

FunkyMonkee · Answer

No, it was broken for me! I was the victim of a hit & run. Her fractured my left leg and took a huge chunk of skin from my left elbow.

Anonymous · Answer

Surprisingly I have not.  And well I've literally had things like having a rock thrown at my head and my arm trapped in a trampoline and yet some how. Not a single bone broken.

kglig · Answer

My left foot. Also my right tibia and fibula Then my femur. The femur was the worst by far and physical therapy is rough but worth walking again.
