I broke my arm and collarbone playing two-hand touch football... six days after I broke my finger playing basketball. :D xD
@thepreposterouspandahahahahah

you sound so much like me!! 😁... I was hard pressed to narrow this question down _ I've done that many things to my poor body in the effort to have fun 😁

@OogieBoogie It was around that time that I gave up on sports and starting playing music hahaha. 😂
@thepreposterouspanda O think that decision just saved your life!🤣🤣🤣

Muaythai. Injured my spleen and fractured 2 ribs. The next couple of months, even breathing hurt.
@rockstar eeww!

Destroyed a knee: torn ACL, torn MCL, torn medial meniscus
@exexec ah, yeah - I get that!
My right knee swells everytime I've had a big day - but hoping it will last.
Didn't do nearly as much damage as you, but om walking round on half my ligaments.
Still works though.
exexec · 61-69, C
@OogieBoogie I'm dealing with that on my other knee. Just had a cortisone shot a few weeks ago, and that helped. Good luck! Don't wait too long before doing something with your knee.
@exexec well, I'm got going to start strengthening it as soon as i finish moving into my new place. Hopefully keeping f the muscles strong around it will be enough.

Bit thanks for tje advice - I'll keep it in mind if it gets worse

A concussion playing football. I lost time that I just simply couldn’t remember afterwards. This was in the ‘80’s, so I was diagnosed as having had my “bell rung”.
DragonFruit · 61-69, M
I broke my leg doing a flip dismount from the rings in gymnastics.
@DragonFruit yuck - j hate the thought of broken bones!
ronisme1 · 61-69, M

Some girl hit me in the face with a basketball somehow. I bled all over my jersey on our team picture day.

Little league practice, (God i hated it). I as at bat. took a swing and the bat vibrated much more than it should. I was halfway to first base when I noticed my finger was swollen really bad. Turns out the ball hit my finger instead of the bat.

Was barely an injury really, but I didn't play a lot of sports, so this is what I had.

Best hit I ever got, though. All the way to centerfield.
ronisme1 · 61-69, M
Broke my hand in wrestling
Laughman · 46-50, M
Played rugby - someone stood on my neck and had to go to hospital with a suspected broken neck...all on mother's Day.

I never had it diagnosed by a doctor (only went to the school trainer)... we were certain I tore cartilage in my knee playing soccer.

I couldn’t twist my knee to the inside without collapsing in pain.
ronisme1 · 61-69, M
@SW-User not good
SW-User
@ronisme1 It healed itself (I was 18). I was surprised.
@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout just one!

Shit - I made the mistake if trying to sub as hockey goalie with no pads!

NEVER AGAIN! I swear - I looked like a cartoon version of someone who'd been in a bar fight! 😁
Fractured jaw and tore half the ligaments in my right knee right off.
Picklebobble2 · 56-60, M

The kind of pain that leaves you with a sick to your stomach feeling.
Jammy · 51-55, M
Both meniscus torn in right knee.
