Anyone ever had a lot of bad sports injuries?
And what sport was it from?
I sure have Gymnastics is brutal..


1) Snapped my right achilles tendon in December while competing on floor.
Got emergency surgery 2 days later.
2) Pulled my left achilles tendon a month before
3) Got a high ankle sprain and couldn't practice for 4 months
4) Had back problems for 3 years (on the verge of a stress fracture) I had an X-ray, and MRI, and a bone scan done.
4) I ended up fracturing my growth plate in my wrist 2 years ago, but my outer bone kept growing..so its kind of sticking out now..
Getting surgery in March to cut the bone down ^o^
5) Landed on my neck while tumbling, went all the way down my back. (now I can't bend my head backwards)


So yea, those are my worst ones yet, what are/were your's?
How did you do it?
Share your experiences!

for many guys, it would be circumcision.

Dude, I don't know what sport you've been playing for that to happen to you.

I broke my writs.
I fell with my whole weight on it.

There is other small injuries but there is so many of those so I dont start to list them.

I've torn my ACL and partially torn my medial meniscus.... twice.

My worst injury would be spraining my ankles while playing badminton.

Hmm ... haven't really had a bad sports injury yet thankfully.

Worst has been a tweaked/rolled ankle. But then again, I usually mess up my ankle every 5 games of basketball I play. xD

Also, I think I have some problems with my knees, but I never really got it checked out.

This past XC season my ankle was swollen for 3 months. no joke @__@
Other than that i periodically roll my ankles too.

ahaha i was just joking.

the worst injury i've had was rolling my ankles and partially tearing a muscle.
i also have this permanent thing in my hip but i wont go into that.

shin splints
still have em
seems like they will never go away

1) Twisted Knee via. sambo sweep
2) ACL Tore via. didnt tap from inward heel hook

I rarely get sports injuries but my worst will just be a sprained ankle. That is about it, unless you consider appendicitis a sports injury since you can get it from playing sports.

I nearly got tendonitis from pulling my thumb back so much from serve receiving in volleyball my junior year, haha. Also pulled a leg muscle in my last game this past year... pain lasted a while, but luckily nothing too serious to stop me from playing permanently!


-Sue.

i pulled my wrist muscle while playing badminton when i fell on the arm that held the racquet. O.o

Idk how it happened. but I was using 'deep heat' for almost 3 weeks. didn't see the doc.

Another... idk if it's considered. Bowling ball whacking knee. ~_~ for somme stranggeee reason when i first started out bowling... wasn't very stable. so

Playing starcraft. I got a cramp on my fingers.

ya... i was playing counterstrike... i think i have gamers wrist

hey! i'm new here... i'm in rythmic gymnastic... my worst injury is my back injury. my backbone is not straight anymore... it's a lil more to the left now... n it hurts most of the time. i dun dare to take the risk to have surgery... coz i'm still able to walk n all.... so here i'm still living with this back!! hahaha... i love tis sport with all my heart

my worst injury is twisting my knee and ankle at the same time plus landing on my wrist putting heaps of pressure on it and eventually breaking it.

Tore my ACL in my right knee.

It sidelined me from all sport for a year. I can never be completely fit because of the damage.

I dislocated my thumb playing basketball. So, I just popped it right back into place and there was a bruise for about a week. I also dislocated my middle finger and did the same thing with it. I dislocated my right leg while skiing, because I fell awkwardly and couldn't get up. I never went to check on my leg, so it looks weird in the knee area, yet it doesn't hurt or anything.

I rolled my ankle and from there on i was out of shape

crack a rib, torn a shoulder muscle, chip my elbow...all from wrestling

how'd you crack your rib.. ? X_____X
& the other things you mentioned too haha

but anyways
during wrestling practice
i tore my acl, or just stretched it
but i think i tore it one of the times after
"stretching" it. 'cause i hadda wrestle at least 2 times after that XP

i broke my ankle in a soccer game
this girl was trying to steal the ball and she kicked my foot instead of the ball

I had shin splints at its worse. I got them while training for Track, but I kept playing on it during Volleyball. I ended up limping for a month after season.

I think it was soccer, back when I was in elementary school... Fractured my right wrist, no big deal, but probably one of the worst injuries. Second the twists and breaks of my ankles from basketball. x.x

From baseball I strained my hamstring running for a triple, painful as hell. Basketball sprains are pretty common for anyone who plays, but the worst is when you come down and you land on top someone's foot, sprained my ankle really bad like that once..out for like 3 weeks lol. No pain no gain like they say, and my friend even tore his ACL in track, he was just running and all of a sudden looked like he malfunctions and crashed, nastiest injury I ever saw live in person.

I don't do sports but since elementary sports are mandatory [gym]..
my only bad injury..

..was to my mental state.

Basketball > playing > running > fat guy > tries to take ball > trips > falls > ..on top of me.
> < " "

Bleugh.

tore my acl doing martial arts. i landed from a kick wrong and then there goes my knee. unbelievable pain. i just had surgery for it 6 months ago

A slightly, a nearly, or a real dislocated shoulder from warming up during my gymnastic class.
I just know it was kind of misplaced for a week or so.
But since I was warming up, that doesn't count?

Well, here's another one:
I was skating happily, and suddenly, for some stupid reason, when I was speeding, I lost control near the board and KABOOM.
An injured knee and hip.
Well, it wasn't that bad, the skin ripped off a little and I got a few bruises.
But it hurt a lot for a few days.
Actually, it's not the collision that injured me, but my stupid self.
I bumped onto the board badly, but I held onto it in order not to fall, my mitten (or glove?) got stuck in the door handle, I pulled it in order to get it out, the door opened, being in an unstable position, I hit the stair after a bad fall. ^o^

I got a pretty bad injury trying to play golf for the first time the other day. I sucked so bad. I only hit two good balls all day - and that was just by accidentally stepping on a rake.

concussion from snowboarding. some guy ran over me and totally took me out. >.<

I partially tore my MCL ligament, LCL and meniscus in my knee a year ago doing a backflip on a trampoline.
I've had many other injuries and plenty of broken bones but my knee has been the worst injury.
Finally at the beginning of this year I was able to start doing martial arts again, I also started Wushu which i LOVE.
I also went back to gym, just doing handsprings etc. Well a week ago doing jumping kicks I injured my knee again not as bad but I spent hours crying because it sucks.

Has anyone else had experiences with knee injuries and training in martial arts?? I'd be really interested to talk to someone.

I'm going thru the toughest time of my life right now due to an injury that happened back in Sept.

I injured my lower back in Sept doing squats with weights inappropriately and before it fully recovered, I played hockey, did stuff with my gf, etc. and made it worse.

Ugh it's a really long story and I dun feel like typing it all out but it is not July, and I am unable to do a lot of the simple things.

You can ask me if you really wanna know or also had a lower back injury and can relate. Actually, I would prefer you contacting me if you also had a lower back injury so I don't feel as alone in this problem.

In 7th grade I wiped out on my skateboard and broke my right thumb and the nail also got ripped off. I also had a gash in the nail bed. It took FOREVER for the nail to grow back.

This isn't really an injury, but I have knee problems. When I was on track freshman year I had a hard time running because I would get pains in my knees, even days after when I was just walking. The bones are off-track in that area so they grind up against each other when I do too much running. Soooo I quit track after that year [for other reasons too], but I wish I could've sticked with it. :/

I minorly fractured my ankle during tennis cuz i stepped on a tennis ball. haha really stupid of me. it still hurts when i run because I didn't go see a doctor until a couple of months later when it really started hurting because I thought it was just a bad sprain.
everyone's injuries seem so brutal. i feel so weak...i've never hurt myself seriously before.

i dislocated my pinky when i was catching a tennis ball (which isnt really counted as a sport)

separated shoulder, both L and R.

severe ankle sprain.

well for me, its probably not that bad..
but my worst sports injury was..

So I was playing flag football in PE one time. And i guess i got all competitive and such . I guess i was mad at the fact that my team was losing by a few points. As the game rule, the flag must be strapped to the belt across your waist. So my friend, who was on the other team had the ball and she started running towards the goal. I ran as fast as i could to try grabbing her flag. I WAS SO CLOSE! until i reached out my hand & tried to pull her flag, she was running really fast and i ALMOST GRABBED IT until her hip hitted my hand really hard. It was in so much pain. After PE, i thought it was going to be them short pain injuries which will heal in a few minutes/hours. But it turns out that when i went to my next class [science], and the injury just HAD to happen on my writing hand...i couldnt write a THING! i tried to put ice on it.. and it didnt work ugh. So i went to a hospital to get it checked, and it turns out that i fractured my hand rawrrr. worse experience everrrr.

my worst injury was when i was in year 5 or 6 and my friend threw a handball to me. i caught it but it mangaed to dislocate my left pinky and i didnt relocate it too T_T

now, i have a disfigured finger

Worst I had was from track. I sprained my ankle. I've popped my thumb and other fingers many times so they're now permanently weird in certain positions.

I had this huge blister on my hand from tennis. I couldn't play for 2 weeks. Soooo boring.

Now I always use a fresh overgrip.

ah sorry to hear about you guys experience, sounds painful.

i don't play sports but i will this upcoming fall.. i just hpe nothing breaks or snaps.

countless sprain rolled ankles. Partially torn meniscus on my knee and dislocated fibula on that same knee playing basketball. i really do feel alone in this one as doctors say it's rare to injure my leg like that. to be
honest, i dunno how i did, it was gradual, not like a instant pain.

lower back pain. but this one i just have to rest it and stretch it out and it's fine.

the knee i dunno how to fix. doctors didn't find any structural damage on the knee, but it's pretty obvious my fibula is popping out alot more than the other knee. he did say i had a slightly torn lateral meniscus and he suggested arthroscopic surgery to find out what else is wrong but haven't had the time to get it done.

anyone have had the same problem, message me, def. interested in talkin about it and finding out more.

Chronic Lower Back Pain-from a cheapshot on the football field. Just gotta stretch it out.

Separated Shoulder- missed a tackle in a 1 on 1-put me out for 3 days...right back out on the field on Sunday (I <3 Advil.)

Chronic Knee Pain- Lineman get the worst eh?

Dislocated Thumb- basketball, some guy thew a ball from half court RIGHT as i went for a lay up.

Just got my first Stinger-elbow. Dude lowered his helmet right into my elbow.

And im only 16...lol.

My worst sports injury is having my jaw pop out then back into place while playing football... I had the ball and out of no where some guy tackles me, hitting his helmet to the side of my head(while wearing a helmet of course lol) needless to say I was pissed as hell cause he used his helmet T_T

My worst one was when I fell from cheerleading. Spotters didn't manange to catch me. I hurt my tailbone and suffered for a week. It took 10 minutes to sit and stand.

New Injury! Groin Pull. Huzzah, the perfect ailment to hamper a lineman's progress!

Probably the worst thing i've ever seen.

Okay. Does a screw going into your leg count?
Because the screw that was sticking out of the wall went into the back of my leg and i thought by lifting up my leg it would get out and so I did. But instead the wound got bigger and I was like "GRRROOOOSSS".. LOL

Okay if this isn't bad then I've twisted my ankle twice, once while playing soccer and the second one walking down the stairs. LOL.
