Most Ridiculous Injury you have ever had in your life?

[DionneB]

as we have had serious injury , what are some ridiculous injuries you have had in your life before?

i would say slipping on some ice outside Bargin Booze and not being able to walk properly for 3 days afterwards , not fun times.

I'm currently sporting a fetching bandage after burning both feet badly in the Christmas beef juices straight from the oven ì

Strained my groin riding a camel

IfYouJumpInMuddyPuddles

Still bandaged 😲

Oh and on our very expensive and much looked forward to honey mooon in Mauritius...

We were walking down some steps that went to the beach and on the last step my ankle just gave way and twisted...I ended up in a very prickly plant, in front of the beach in a bikini 🤣🤣 I looked a mess!!
I couldn't walk on my foot properly and meant we couldn't go on any of our planned days out as I couldn't weight bear and had to keep foot elevated....to top it off I had sunburn on my lips at the same time and it looked like a very very bad filler job!!! Luckily people thought the two injuries were connected 😂😂

When I was in reception, I purposely stapled my finger...twice. I was curious if it would go through my skin. I have no idea why I did it the second time.

Too many to list. Fell down the stairs at my boyfriends house (first visit too!) broke my coccyx. Stepped down my front step and broke my foot in 2 places as we were leaving for first holiday together! Age 20 fell down my stairs on the way out for my birthday, broke my arm in 3 places 😂 have a very badly scarred hand from burning it on the grill attempting to cook bacon ..... I could go on. Most embarrassing time was when I dislocated my hip during sex 👍🏻 fun visit to a&e 😂😂

The week after I bought my first horse, I managed to crack two ribs and was in agony. Everyone assumed I had fallen off, but so had actually slipped while carrying the saddle, and I was scared of damaging it (also new), that I didn’t my hand out to break the fall!

Sniffed a rolled up ball of cotton to see what it smelt like. Stuck up my nose and a visit to a&e where they got it out with a pair of tweezers. Did the same with a garden pea. Twice
Walked at full pelt into a supporting beam at high school. Fell over. Got up and carried on the day with a pounding headache. Pretty sure I had concussion after that one but didn't tell anyone because I was so ashamed.

Another one from high school. I stood up from my chair but didn't push it back far enough and got my foot caught between the chair leg and the desk leg and went face first into the desk next to me. Bullied worse than ever

Ohh and was running round after my then 2 year old DS at the horseracing in the rain with my hood up trying to stop him falling in the puddles. Ran into the back of the giant TV screen and had to get medical attention off St John's ambulance. Went on a campervan holiday with DH and DS two days later with a massive colourful shiner. The worst of it was my husband has hurt his right hand at work that week too so he had a bandaged hand to go with my black eye. Got some very sympathetic looks that holiday.

Put a knife in my back pocket at a bbq to keep it safe from kids. Sat on it. Stabbed myself in the arse. A&E 👍

Everyone laughed.

I cried it really hurt

This has actually reminded me of the worst one I ever had.
Our childhood house had those old storage heaters that had a large, circular metal cage on the outside wall. This particular one was to the left of the back door. I was running from the garden, tripped and put my hands out to break my fall. Unfortunately my left hand hit the red hot metal plate and it sort of stuck for a few seconds. That was an a&e visit and I ended up with a huge blister covering my whole palm. It was incredibly painful.

In secondary school aged 11 sliding on ice in schoolyard and as I was taking my turn another girl decided to come in opposite direction knocked me flying resulting in fractured skull and a week in hospital ironically when ambulance turned up to take me in it was my uncle who was the ambulance driver.

fell of my bike going up a kerb when I was 9. I broke both of my arms!

And once decided that what my pre teen face needed was a was in neat Dettol. Absolute agony.
Or the time I was a teen and shaving my legs for the first time, slipped and dragged the blade sideways from knee to ankle leaving a horrendous slash down my leg.

While removing my ben wa balls before a planned night of passion, I had been wearing them during the day to be sexy, the little cord rubbed off my inner bits and tore them - cue very heavy bleeding (I lost about a pint of blood) and one trip to a&e - I got 12 internal stitches and no night of passion

Mind you, the drs kept asking over and over what happened, which trying to explain was tricky and the staff kept asking what ben wa balls were lol

As for the OH, I wouldn't let him near me at all but to be fair he showed his salt that night as he held my hand the whole time they were trying to stop the bleeding - had to sit and drink jugs of water before they would examine me bar shoving a towel between my legs as wanted a pregnancy test first - he put up with a lot that night

Nasty burn to chin after hot mozzarella slid off pizza and stuck there.

I once took part in a work sports day dressed as a bumblebee. In my enthusiasm, my glittery deely boppers somehow managed to scratch my eyeball and I ended up in eye casualty and had to wear a patch for a week 😳

I slipped on glitter on a marble floor when dancing The Nutcracker with an amateur ballet company at St Thomas’ hospital in London, cracked my head, lost my vision and had to be wheeled off to A&E in my fairy costume, tutu and pink tights. Yes they did laugh at me down in A&E. Good place to crack your head though.

Ooh I’ve remembered another. Last year I was at a friend’s birthday party chasing my 7yo round the garden in a game of tag, and when I went to grab him I lunged onto a tree stump hidden in the long grass and chipped my knee cap. Fractured patella in medical terms. Bloody painful...

I have a few different ones, but the one I'll never forget is breaking my middle finger while playing twister ...
Lean over the male friend I was playing with to reach a spot, he then decided it would be a great idea to lift himself up to reach his next spot. Sent me tumbling over top of him, and my poor finger took the brunt of the fall as I put my hand out to stop myself.

And another time, when I was 18, the same friend was giving me a lift home from work. My period had come on unexpectedly that day and I needed supplies so we stopped outside a happy shopper, just as it was getting dark. I dashed in, hurrying as my friend was waiting in the car outside on double yellows. Unbeknownst to me, the shop had changed its frontage that day and what I thought was a wide open door was actually a plate glass window. I ran head first into it (no hands!) and broke my nose and fractured a cheek bone. They admitted liability as they hadn’t got round to putting the protective stickers up yet to warn you it was glass...

And then there was a time when I was in one of the gorgeous rickety Victorian lifts in a quaint block of flats in London and the light fitting just fell right onto my head and gave me concussion....

Oh! And at a parents’ football tournament at school, I was watching DH play when one of his teammates wellied the ball and it hit me full on in the face and (re) broke my nose. Luckily I had just put my 1yo down to toddle around, otherwise it would have been his head, which doesn’t bear thinking about ...

I was trying to give my brother a piggy back when I was younger than ten can’t remember how old. He is five years younger than me. He fell onto the floor and whatever way he did I dropped landing on the corner of the radiator. Lots of blood and crying etc thinking I was going to go blind, I still have the scar just above the corner of my eyebrow.
