Broken Bones?

Question

Have you ever had any? What & how did it happen?

I ended up with a broken ankle by falling out of a moving car. I guess I was lucky.

Answer 1

Yes, bout 5 years ago, I broke my Tib, my fib and shattered my ankle. ALL three at once. My leg was put back together after six hours of surgery and a titanium plate, and bolts in my ankle to hold it together later. And to this day I still don't walk right. My right leg (one broken) always sticks out to the right (like sideways) and every now and then my leg give out. Like it isn't even there. Hence my trike. Can't ride two wheels anymore, So I now got three.
It happened when I slipped on some ice. Left leg went out and the right one just shattered. Freaky but it happened. I'm still in constant pain too.

Answer 2

I broke my jaw on a bike because I didn't listen to Mom. I was changing my tire when some friends arrived, wanting to go to the lake. Mom said, “Now don't leave your bike set up like that without tightening up the bolt. You'll forget about it!” I said, “No I won't, Mom. I can't forget because the tire’s flat. Don't worry.” Then I quickly propped the bike up on the wheel and left.

A week or so passed and my girlfriend came over, wanting to go for a bike ride. But my tire was flat, so we decided to just walk it up to the gas station and fill it. I thought I'd patch it later. In normal circumstances, things probably would have been just fine. But we lived in the mountains. We decided to race down a very steep hill! When I hit the railroad tracks, the bike leapt into the air… and so did my tire! It became airborne, leaving my bike and I to contemplate gravity, inevitability, and the pavement, which we did, and very closely--for about 20 feet!

When we came to a halt, my hands were still clutching the handles of the bike, wondering why I hadn't listened to my mother and secured that mutinous tire to the bike. I stood up, then doubled over from a severe pain in my stomach. It passed rather quickly. My friend rushed to my side and cried, “Are you ok?” which struck me as funny since my face, shoulder, and collar bone had road rash. I knew I looked a fright and started laughing.

When I tried biting down, my teeth didn't fit together. I said, “I think I broke my jaw.” My friend said, “No. You can still talk.” But it was and had to be wired. My family was amazed at how well (and how much!) I could talk with a wired jaw. They were even more amazed by the fact that I didn't lose weight. Apparently, most people who have their jaws wired do because of limited food intake… but I was VERY creative and blended everything! I didn't lose an ounce.

Answer 4

I snapped each bones in each forearms in a filth motorcycle crash approximately 10 years in the past. My motorcycle bogged out at the leap, so it did not propel me all of the solution to the touchdown ramp. Nose-wheel hit the again of the touchdown ramp, so I went from 30mph to 0mph in zero toes. I braced for influence by means of clutching the grips tight, which eventually used to be what made my hands snap. Left hand touched my left elbow at one factor (which I'm oddly pleased with). Right forearm used to be at a ninety measure attitude. Looked like i had 2 elbows. Still offers me the heebie geebies considering it lol
