Ever broken a bone?

Just wondering, as I'm laid up here in the age old male tradition of wearing a bag of frozen peas on my foot!
Seems in my ever more pathetic desire to stay young and fit, I have probably broken a bone, somewhere just between the ball of my foot and my big toe.
It's a strange kind of pain, like a dull ache, and throbbing....ouchie!

How did you break your foot?

Broken Arm once
My knee probably looks like a shredded beef taco on the inside.
nice imagery

I hear it pop every morning, and every time I go snowboarding. I just lather it up with Sour Cream and it's good to go
Throw in a little Frank's Hot Sauce and you won't feel a thing

Playing 5 a side football with a bunch of mates, who are also old enough to know better. I was running onto a ball to shoot, I gave it my full pelt, and this awkward scrawney little guy lunged across to block it...I hit the ball very hard, and also his outstretched foot at the same time. Knocked him off his feet...the tosser!
Somehow I guessed it would be football related.
Sorry to hear that Jamie. Is it your first broken bone?
No, believe it or not I once broke my arm playing football! Unlike this one here, there was no mistaking it, the bone just above my wrist was clearly snapped, you could see it pointing the wrong way under the skin.
Maybe you should give up football and take up curling then.
curling is dangerous.
i watched a girl from my work slip on the ice and land on the back of her head.
but never ever tell a man to give up football.. thats like us telling women to give up moaning... its never going to happen
Well, I kinda gave it up, this 5 a side stuff is different. I can't give this up, I need it.
And as for injuries when i was playing.....I won't list them all, I had more than Bryan Robson...actually, you probably have no idea with that analogy, so let's just say I had lots.:)
You're right. I have no idea who he is. I've never broken a bone either. :cool:
Holy Fuck! Ouch!
Although you made out better than a kid in my Jr. High. The truck driver that ran into him said "that's what you get for skateboarding" after the kid died :(
Ok, I feel like a blouse now, with my frozen peas!

No compound fractures as yet... damn i'm gonna be excited when I finally get one of those babies! :rolleyes: lol
Also.... nearly sliced thumb off with stanley blade (fantastic scar on right hand), smashed face in numerous times on bike, ripped several ligaments tendons and muscles and had stupid number of stitches and industrial sized dressings....
Basically, I'm a liabilty.

And compond fractures...oh, I saw a few of those during football games, not a pretty sight.
I challenge you to watch this without cringing at least once.
Mountain biking can be really dangerous, especially when you're throwing yourself off huge verts onto piles of rocks or into quarries. Tbh alot of my injuries have been done while getting my confidence up on my bike when I was younger, not getting my ass far enough back over the saddle, leaning too far into bends etc.
I've seen a few compound fractures.... I agree, not pleasant.
... and I still think Drive-By Truckers are better.
I didnt!
hahaha! thats ace!
... and I still think Drive-By Truckers are better.
Then..you are sick my friend.
btw, foot update: Peas aren't bringing the swelling down, and there's some rather magnificent bruising just starting to appear.
erm.... yes? lol
I used to work in a mortuary and after years of seeing my own dangling limbs and blood, nothing shocks me! LMAO
They don't make gals like me anymore...

A broken foot isn't supposed to keep the mail from arriving!!
remind me never to go for a gentle cycle ride with you
