The Weirdest Injuries You've ever Had

I just thought it might be fun to do a topic on this to share some maybe funny stories. Just last night I was using one of those twisty pencil sharpeners, when the point broke off and got stuck in it, and in an attempt to get it out I accidentally cut my pointer, middle, and pinky finger rather badly when it slipped.

Another "wound" I got was when I worked in fast food and I was mixing a shake when the lid came off and cut the back of my hand; it wasn't a deep cut, but it was long, and wouldn't stop bleeding.

What about you guys, any interesting stories? It doesn't have to be cut or something like mine, but maybe an incident like you stepped on your cat and fell, or something.

When I was growing my mother thought that one side of my chest might be larger than the other, so she took me in to have it x-rayed. (It was within tolerable differences and eventually it balanced out) After it was done, because I was positioned wrong, I fell off the table and hit my head. So they put me right back on and x-rayed my head too. Turns out I had concussion.

Hmm... I don't know if the injuries themselves were weird but the outcomes were...

A few years ago I had two ingrown toe-nails on my big-toes. Well I went to get them cut out, everything went fine. It's been two years now and my toenail never grew back completely. I have two half toe-nails...

Another is from March when I had surgery to fix an abnormaility in my arm muscles. Well that went fine but the scar it left is shaped like a big Z. Everytime my family and friends see my scar they shout "Zoooorroooo!!" (I fucking hate Zorro...)

One of the weirdest injuries I had, was when I was pulling my leg muscle while trying to stretch, so I could play DDR. I ended up not being able to play. u_u;;

My dad bought me a vanity with a giant circular mirror from a second hand store a few years ago. It had a small chip in it on the side, but other than that it was fine. Flash forward about two years later. I had put a bunch of photos around my mirror, one of them covering the chip. I noticed that their was a clear line on the mirror. The mirror was dusty, so I thought it was just a clean line. I rubbed the line and saw no difference. One of my pictures was covering it so I lifted it up and noticed it was from the chip. I stared at it for a few seconds, then figured it out. As I moved back it cracked straight across the middle and the top part came down like a guillotine on my finger. It had cut my left ring finger open and I started screaming. My finger was fine, but now I've got a cresent shaped scar on it.

Weirdest thing is, my memory of the actual cutting of my finger is fuzzy.
A. I could have sworn that my hands were both down at my side when it fell.
B. At the angel the cut was made, my left hand would have had to have been like I was shieding my face, but I don't remember doing that.
C. I can't possibly see how I was close enough for my hand to get cut, left alone just one finger.

It's very weird indeed. @_@

Hm. The only weird thing I can think of is when I closed a van door on my fingers. They were all purple and bendy in all the wrong directions, but I didn't feel any pain. By the time we got to the emergency room, the discoloration was gone, and my fingers were straight again. X-rays showed no damage, and I went along like nothing ever happened.

My mother was flipping out the whole time, but I could have sat there and whistled a little tune for all it bothered me.

I once had a dream that I fell down a hill and rammed my right shoulder into a rock on the way down. When, I woke up, there was a bruise there.

I probably was just sleeping heavily and rolled over and bumped it really hard on my night stand, but it was still kind of scary/weird.

My dad closed the car window on my fingers once and refused to pull them back down for a while, when I removed my fingers, they were numb and later started hurting, but anyway, REALLY DEEP CUTS. But they didn't bleed. You look in and there's like... this dent in my fingers and you can see the blood inside but none of it came out.
Very... strange.

My foot once ended up under one of our car's wheels one time 9-10 years ago. Didn't get permenantly hurt, but... ... still wierd.

this is extremely easy for me to answer

I dont remember how old I was when it happened but one time right after we had a cookout I stepped barefoot of the disposed ashes from the fire. I got a 2nd degree burn on the bottom of my foot. It was the worst pain I have ever felt in my entire life.

One time before we (The students and I) went on a field trip, our teacher told us to put up the chairs. The bottom of the chair has this really pointy thing and I cut my finger on it.

Ok, i'm not sure if this stuff qualifies as weird, but here goes...

When I was just starting 5th grade, I had gotten a huge spider bite on the back of my leg, like really high on the thigh. It was really BIG! I got it like two days before school started and I had to rush home every day after school so my dad could change the bandage. It was a puss filled mess. Ewww... I was so glad when it finally healed.

Ok, another one happened when I was in 11th grade. I was in the school musical and we had just gotten our parasols. I closed mine and felt a slight pinch on my thumb, but didn't think much of it. I looked down when I got back to my seat after putting the parasol away and my thumb was really bleeding bad.

third, this is more of a could-have-been accident. I was in 8th grade science class and helping out with a bridge project when i moved down the table to go look at something. a couple seconds later a ceiling tile fell right where i was previously standing. That could have been a really bad headache if I hadn't moved.

I wasn't so fast when i was 16. I was at a church camp meeting when my friend went up to give the opening prayer. I heard a creeking sound above me. Then another and then the metal lighting fixture fell on my head. Luckily, i just came away with a bad headache and the fixture was really light. Although my friend was leery to give the prayer in public again for a while.

I lost the nail on one of my hands in a church door once.

also i don't know if this counts but when i went skiing once i leant back ect fell over to stop myself did an impressive roll and wided myself. However i thought that the ski poll had punctured my lung and that i was dieing. lukily i had just winded myself.

I also nearly got crushed by a ski rack as well when it fell on me .
( i heard it and caught it above my head, in the end two men came and helped put it up against the wall)

Mines probalby when I cut my Hip on the hallway closet, and I could see inside of myself, it was really scarey, and I thought I would die

Too many to list. One time I picked up the remote just to press one button and bam! My wrist started to hurt like hell. It hurted so bad, I couldn't even stand moving my fingers or hand at all.

I had plenty of football-related injuries when I was a kid, but that really isn't "weird." I was actually pretty lucky - I only got one concussion.

My funniest/most painful injury happened at soccer camp. I was kicked in my guy-parts, and peed blood.

I almost knocked myself out in a marching band practice. Figure that one out. =P

Marching band's the thing with the baton right?

I think I figured it out! Yay!

When I was little, I fed my cat a bunch of cat nip, and then started teasing him. He'd swipe at my face and I'd duck. Well I was a bit slow and his claw got caught right underneath my left eyeball and half my face and clothes were covered in a steady river of blood. I remember my mom holding me up infront of the mirror and screaming "Look, that's all your blood!" or something like that.

He walked into a goalpost if remember correctly. =P

And no, Marching Band's where you play instruments and march along with it. No batons involved, lol.

I did this to my cat once... it did a flip and kicked me in the face.
