How many bones have you broken?

Question

I've broken 4. When I was 2, a little boy pushed me down the stairs at day-care. who has stairs at day care and lets children play on them! Anyways, broke my little leg! (i did grow up with my legs the same height, LOL). Broke my wrist when I was 6 falling of moneky bars (clumsy) broke both pinkies, two different years playing basketball (5th and 6th grade). I've been good and safe since then :)

Love to you all :)

Answer 1

I don't know. I have had 121 fractures, but some of them were repeats. My last doctor wanted to contact Guiness, but I don't want the present record holder mad at me.

Most of the bones on the right side of my body have been broken, few on the left except the vertebrae, which are in the middle, but the fractures were on the left side. I also had my left ankle crushed somehow. Feet and hands have a lot of bones in them, and I've only broken about half the bones in my right hand.

Femur twice in car wrecks, ulna and radius just above the wrist twice, once jumping from a swing, once falling from a ladder. Tibia and fibula and several foot bones in another ladder fall.

Scapula, ribs 4 through 7, patella, clavicle, rotator cuff(technically not a bone, but it was pulverized), two of the supports for the zygmomatic arch(cheekbone), several skull bones, nose and humerus in a bad fall.

Several foot bones and toes, walking through a house in the dark and kicking an old iron space heater.


Lumbar vertebrae L-5 and L-3. Sacral body. Thumb twice. Zygmomatic arch three times, including above listed incident.

Both ankles were crushed when I was a toddler, no one knows how.

Some doctors can't believe I am still alive. Hmm. That reminds me. One Halloween I should go up to Oneonta and see a doctor who thinks I am dead, but I just don't feel up to the trip this year.

Thanks for the memories.

Answer 2

I broke both wrists, my foot twice and a couple of toes. I'm clumsy. The first time I broke a wrist, I tripped over a dirt clod in the street. The second time I tripped on the edge of the sidewalk. The foot happened when I stepped in a hole, the second time I slipped out of my Birkenstocks and hurt it that way. Now ask how many surgeries I've had and that is another story!

Answer 3

I've never broken my own bones, I had them broken for me durring recreation
I broke my vertebrae in 92 on an ATC 3 wheeler-before they were outlawed along with my Left cheek bone
both sides of my jaw in 88 playing ice hockey
my colar bone in 89 also hockey
the small bones in my feet probably hundreds of times learning to ice skate
ironically never broke an arm or a leg
my injuries in the 92 accident included a moderate to sevre head trauma
and I've been free of injuries since then

Answer 6

None, but I still have a cracked skull...from almost 3 years ago...DO NOT swing on a grape vine that goes over a holler...you just might fall off the dang thing, at 10 feet off the ground, and bust your head open on a fallen down tree...that's real fun....
