I was just climbing a ladder barefoot and took a misstep, leaving my toenail as the only thing holding up 195 pounds of me. This lead to my toenail being ripped off and there's blood everywhere. I dunno if a toenail being pulled off is grounds to go to the hospital. I wrapped a paper towel around the toe really tightly, so hopefully it stops bleeding, but god is the blood seeping through the towel.
|
I have two scars on my face from trying to commit suicide by throwing my temple into a stairway while high on dxm :|
|
Koko...not sure, might warrant a visit to an urgent care center if it doesn't stop bleeding. I slammed my finger in a metal door once and not only burst open the tip but also had so much blood trapped under the fingernail that they had to drill a hole in it to let it out.
|
At any rate, feel better soon, toenail stuff sucks.
|
It's better now. The bleeding stopped for the most part. Just looks really bad. I can't find where the toenail went though, not that it matters. I appreciate the support of my fucked foot.

One time I masturbated so much that my dick got scabs.

For half a second I thought you said scabies instead of scabs

I have an ankle update. I called the ortho surgeon on Friday like I was supposed to and the assistant said he'd try to pull some strings to get me seen and that he would call me back at his convenience (his words). I guess his convenience didn't happen the rest of the day because I never heard back.
He also asked why I didn't have an MRI if it's a confirmed fracture and it was like, I don't fucking know, that wasn't my call, ok? Meanwhile, my ankle is doing this clicking thing every time I step on it and there's now a big dent missing from the side of the ankle-bone that sticks out. That must be the place where the bone ripped off. Sort of sore, but more of a weird unpleasant floppy feeling. |
Mentioned this in the chat thread, but I seriously f-ed up both my knees doing something completely inane - crawling around for 2 hours on a tile floor looking for a small rubber ball. I thought I might need surgery the pain was so bad, but it turned out chiropractic care got me most of the way back.
I've been wearing only one knee brace about every other day for about a week now, and have been trying to do more "deep-knee-bends" to improve strength and flexibility, but it still hurts like hell. I'm probably headed for surgery at some point in the future, but I want to have it on my own terms, dammit, and not on my knee's terms. @Kit - That loose and floppy feeling describes my ankles every blessed day. >: Having 51-year-old connective tissue sucks serious ass. |

knee pain is horrible. I'm a bit of a pain-snob, and some of the worst pain I have ever experienced has been accidentally kneeling on a piece of gravel.
Never heard back from the ortho's office, so I'll start pestering them again tomorrow. We're now a week out from the fracture, and I don't want to get into the situation where I have to have a surgery to re-break it and set it right. And, of course, the toddler nature class I've been waiting forever to secure a spot in starts tomorrow, and it's a two hour hike. Going to have to wrap the ankle and pray they don't do a steep or treacherous trail (how bad could it be with a group of toddlers, right?) |
Not really an injury, but more of a medical update.
Been on diuretics for a few weeks now, to hopefully drain some fluid build-up in this sac behind my cochlea. I guess it's working, because I'm not having as many vertigo attacks. So this means they'll probably put a shunt in that sac, where they cut in behind my ear, rummage around, make an incision in that sac, and stick a tube in it. |
i fell down and got banned :(
its not a good place to be guys |
Put a banned-aid on it :rimshot

I don't know if this counts as an injury, but back in 2001 I was chewing on one of those little tabs you use to open drinks, bending it with my mouth and shit, when I heard a crunch. Part of my tooth chipped off. I haven't fixed it since it makes me look funnier.
