Re: Complain About Sporting Injuries
I've pulled muscles and snapped ligaments when I used to play football (the real football).
Re: Complain About Sporting Injuries
I have kids arthritis. It's called tendonitis...
I've been out of soccer for a month and a few days here and there...

BTW: It's from soccer...
Re: Complain About Sporting Injuries
I "caught" a baseball right between my middle and ring finger. (Tried to stop a ground ball with my non-glove hand. It got away and rolled off into the outfield.) Split my hand right open. Good for several stiches. Never even knew I was cut until I felt the blood in my hand.

Re: Complain About Sporting Injuries
I've served 3 years on the varsity line, only one more left till its all said and done. Defence is the only position to play, nothing else quite like it. Almost feels like hand to hand combat sometimes.Originally Posted by Alexanderofmacedon

Re: Complain About Sporting Injuries
Playing sports lowers your IQ so I stay away from all of them. Unless you count video games as a sport.

I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

Re: Complain About Sporting Injuries
Play front-row rugby, still yet to get anything more than a large bruise. Although, the tip of one of my fingers is slightly wonky from a bad attempt at a tackle...
Re: Complain About Sporting Injuries
I've pulled a few muscles and things like that although the worst is Why I can't really play rugby anymore. I don't really know how but I have hurt my knee quite badly. I can't really run more than 50 metres befiore I get a crippling pain in my knee, damn ligaments although it is improving buit not really fast enough.

Fractured / broke my pelvis playing rugby.

Re: Complain About Sporting Injuries
I play rugby, but have managed come away relatively unscathed. The worst injuries I've had are probably once where I dislocated my thumb and the tendon got caught in the joint (not painful, but took a while to fix), and once, after I got tackled, my leg seized up and I was unable to move it for hours whilst I was in excruciating pain.
Aside from that I've had the usual bumps and bruises, some of which have looked fairly horrid (getting a black eye from being stamped in the face, and a GIGANTIC split lip to name but two), but none of which have actually been terribly bad.
I used to play in the second row though, so now, because of that, I have long-term back problems, which is a bit of a bummer, but it doesn't stop me playing.
Re: Complain About Sporting Injuries
Lots of football (real football, "soccer") related injuries, such as torn ligaments, pulled muscles, a broken leg from a slide tackle...
A few rugby related injuries (broke my arm when I was 7)
and a cricket related injury (a bat smacked me in the face and knocked out three of my front teeth when I was 8)

Re: Complain About Sporting Injuries
You're lucky those two NFL guys didn't kill you for it. You got off easy with just a concussion.

Re: Complain About Sporting Injuries
I kicked a football, missed it, lost my balance and landed heavy on my back. The ribs at my chest got a heavy pull, so I got what I might call a rib strain.
Had to stay calm for a couple of weeks.
That`s about it..

Re: Complain About Sporting Injuries
Nothing too serious, except for that time when someone dived on top of me during relays (swimming), that screwed my back and arms. Plenty of bruises while playing football for fun, of course.

Re: Complain About Sporting Injuries
I blew out my knee playing soccer 8 years ago. The whole joint is pretty unstable, I kept tweaking it, so I always wear a brace when I play now. I've probably broken toes playing, but there really isn't anything you can do about that. Almost rolled an ankle last week playing, still hurts a little, but it should be good for my next game.

Re: Complain About Sporting Injuries
Broke my wrist when I fell whilst cycling; my wrist hit the edge of a concrete plate which was part of the road: tipped a bit of the top of the bone off. Surgerey left me with a very nice scar and a screw in my wrist, but I thank the mother of a friend (who happens to be a physiotherapist) for making me exercise my hand, so now I can use it just as well as before the accident.
Apart from that, I've never suffered much, far too lazy for that.

badly bruised ribs from american football; was a running back freshman year in a particularly bad game, and there are some really, really big farm kids from other areas of the state...
sprained ankle from a nasty fall i had when fooling around on some steep moguls
3rd degree burn along my leg from a dirtbike exhaust pipe, after tipping around a corner. i had to have the top layer of skin scraped off whenever it started to grow so that the skin would grow bottom-up, most pain i've ever been in, but virtually no scar.
