Any serious broken bones

Last year I was playin football at my friends house. It was like a 8 v 8. We chose to receive and I was the one who caught the ball. As I was running, I saw an open space on the other side of the field. I turned around to go that way. As I turned around, Someone pulled me down by my shirt and i heard my ankle just snap. First I thought I broke it but my friends were telling me that if I can move my toes then its not broken(Biggest crock of **** ever). My ankle begin to swell to where it became the size of like 2 golf balls in my ankle.

It was the worst weekend ever. 2 days of staying uplate, Pain, moving trying to get comforatlble, Getting up to use the bathroom was a *****. As I fewll on my ankle twice during the weekend, HORRIBLE PAIN!!!!!. That monday My mom said maybe we should go to the doctors for safe measures. Sure enough I broke my anke right in the growth plate.

Growth plate is what helps make your legs grow to keep each leg even when you stop growing

The next 6-8 weeks was the worst. Eventually I got my cast tooken off. But it wasnt over yet, Thier still was the risk of my growth plate closing. Doing that would have most likely made my right leg shorter then my left to which could have led to re-constructive surgery. Went back 3 months later for a check up and it was official, the growth plate did close. Good news was that since im 16 and not like 8 or 9, The doctor said that most of my growing would come from my knees and not my ankle.

It hurts still every now and then. Arthirtis will defenitly occur in that region when im an old man.

Have you broken any major bones before?

I was playing hockey two years ago and I got hit from behind.

I put my hand up just in time to protect my head.

It hurt a lot but I got up and went to the bench.

When I sat down the coach asked me if I was okay and I said I think so.

He looked at my wrist and I seen I wasn't okay lol.

I went to the dressing room and went to the hospital.

My wrist was broken.

Knuck you really need to start typing in paragraphs instead of each sentence on a different line.

I've never broken anything, but I've fractured my heel when I landed on it with my entire body weight while free-style skiing.

Mine wasn't to serious, but it hurt like hell.

I was 7, me and my friend were ramming eachother with excersise balls, I fell back and my wrist snapped. It landed completely upside down, flatly.

It missed the growth plate by a CM the doctor said..And I have HUGE hands, so if my hand stopped growing like that..I would look like nemo!

Turns out I fractured the bones connecting to the wrist(Fracture is it completely snapping it half, not just a crack, completely in half.)

I haven't broken anything, but I was playing soccer and my friend's shin snapped and it pierced the skin.

You could see all the bone sticking out, blood everywhere, SICK!

Sorry if I'm off-topic.

I was running up and down and around the playground in the 4th grade. I slipped off the top, about 5m high and broke my foot. It really hurt and one of the techers just said it was probarbly just a jar or something and I should try and walk on it. My friend took me to the Fist-Aid room, where they called my parents and I was taken to the X-ray centre.

I havn't broken anything but I've dislocated my right elbow twice and my right shoulder once.

The worst was a broken ankle that I got in a Mosh Pit at a Slayer Concert. I had the cast on for 3 weeks and I couldn't stand it so I hacked it off and just took it easy. That might come back to haunt me . Also, had my nose broken at a Slipknot show. All within last ten years. Other than that Lots of Broken fingers , sprained wrists and Ankles from Skateboarding back in the day.
