Left and Right

By CHERUB15 (Age 13)

Hiya good people of FN, just wondering how many of you have broken body bits and pieces. I have broken my right elbow, fractured my back, jammed my fingers (although that doesnt count) and now I have my left arm in a sling because I slipped at the swimming pool on Mon, landed on my elbow and back! Supposedly not fractured.

My fingers ache typing one handedly, I cant believe i used to be able to do this for hours!

Also, to go with the title and arm thing, I have to look at my hands for left and right! :)

Smile on,

CHERUB15 :)

    I have had a broken rib, a broken nose, a broken shoulder blade, 2 broken arms and a broken leg, a dislocated shoulder and my rib and shoulder blade are hurting as I type this moment. I also have broken my collar bone and I have broken my thumb. The last thing I had was stiches in my head and an operation on my ear. i broke my rib playing rugby when i got tackled my nose was done playing judo in a fight my shoulder blade was done playing football i broke an arm when i fell out a tree and getting trod on with studs again at rugby my leg was broken by falling out a tree i dislocated my shoulder when i was 10 months old by rolling off my nappy changing station which was about 1 metre high and when i rolled off my mum tried to catch me but i landed on my shoudler i broke my collar bone falling out of my bunk bed on the top i forgot to say i have broken my leg twice the second time skateboarding on a ramp i dislocated my thumb and twisted my ankle by jumping of a ship in a playground and landing on my foot in a weird posiition then falling on mu phone

    In year 7 I did something really wierd to my ankle. Basicly, I you know where the sticky out lump bit is on the outside of your ankle there is a elasticy muscle which is stretched around the sticky out bone and my muscle became too stretchy and basicly ping-ed off! If that makes sense! So I couldn't do PE for 3 months - the only sport I could do was swimming and I had to have physio on it for about 9 onths afterwards... It's opk now though! :)

    Never broken anything, but sprained my left arm 5 times and my right arm 7 times! Done soft tissue damage to various bones in my body about 3 times lol!

    I have never broken anything in my life, but my shoulder blades are pretty messed up because my stupid P.E teacher made us put our shoulder blades together until they touched and if you didn't do it then she made you run a lap of the front field. Also when I move my shoulder blades now it is funny and it feels... well ... squishy...??? ._.

    My list will be the longest! Okay, my current injuries: I have a terrible problem with my wrist and I have had it for 13 months now. It hasn't stopped hurting since January 2011 and it's really quite bad pain, and we don't know what's wrong with it! :'( Also, I have fractured the same wrist three times, damaged a nerve in my elbow, sprained my wrist around a million times, broken four or five fingers (one is a bit bent now thanks to a bowling ball crushing it), I fainted once and hit my knee on tiles and it really hurt, it got very badly bruised, I fell down the stairs and I sprained my ankle and bruised my foot, have twisted it several times, I had loin strain once and I couldn't walk at all, I've had loads of cuts and once I had a chunk taken out of my knee in a nasty fall (I still have the scar and it was seven years ago), I almost cracked my head open and I broke my nose in the same incident (well it was bleeding a lot and I hit it hard and it hurt)... I have fallen over quite a few times, have had a lot of bruises, have had a few operations, had a soft tissue injury, have had a dislocated shoulder once when I got up in the morning, have shoulder pains, had a really big problem with my knee... Is that it? Well, hopefully but I'll probably be back with more! Right now, my wrist and shoulders are hurting as I write this, especially my wrist which is really bad. Also, my knee hurts. :(

    I remember, also I stepped on glass in someone's garden once (I have no idea how it got there) and I almost broke my leg. I sliced my toe open in Spain as well! It's clumsy of me! ;)

  • redhorse10 (Age 14) wrote on Thursday, 2 February 2012 @ 18:51

    Sweetpea, I get how you feel! I don't think it's all that disgusting, just reality for both of us! ;)

  • diver1 (Age 12) wrote on Saturday, 4 February 2012 @ 18:49

    I have broken my little finger and sprained my ankles and wrists countless times!! I dive and always sprain them diving!! xx

  • footygirl (Age 11) wrote on Saturday, 4 February 2012 @ 19:39

    I have never done any damage to myself, apart from many bruises (but that's normal as I play football!). My knee clicks when I bend it (my mum says it's cos my muscles are growing at a different rate to my bones) and I have regular ankle and heel problems which last for a couple of days. But no injuries that have been caused by myself, thankfully!

  • redhorse10 (Age 14) wrote on Sunday, 5 February 2012 @ 19:18

    Sweetpea, sometimes I'm not too bad but my wrist is always hurting, and has been quite badly for 13 months minimum. :( P.S- I remember I almost broke my leg as well!

    i know this might be strange but i broke my right arm last year around this time i think. i was in a soft play area in Preston and i fell of the swing and then fell onto the soft mat. i rember my friend coming up from going on the slide. his dad took me to the hospital because my mum and dad were not there. my mum and dad got there and then i had my X-ray taken. i broke it in 3 places. (p.s i got to do all my work on the compter because i am right handed)
