the injury thread.

[Bro]

After reading articles and ttching's post I just found out it is possible, and I did get a concussion.
A "Grade 1" concussion. Last time I remember getting a concussion, it was when I was playing peewee football and I tackled a guy.

Hurt my pushing(Right) ankle a few days ago trying to front feeble a down rail, missed my truck and landed in an awkward off balance front board. Shot me to the bottom. Landed with my front foot off, but my right ankle on the ground with my toes still on the board. Got a jolt of pain through my ankle and it's been sore since. I've just been taking it easy and keeping a brace on tight.

@JiggyJamesG oowww I tried the rubber band on your ankle thing and it actually works, maybe that will help?

I've scraped the skin off my knees almost down to the bone before. I've came pretty close to breaking my arm, I scarred my ankle falling too. One time I fell down on my back going down hill and my back's not felt right ever since then

i skinned my knee once, and i've also twisted my arm in a painful fahion. i've gotten many boo-boos in my career.

I hope your not trying to say I'm some big pussy. I've just never had any major injuries yet.

Bail's killing it today.

Maybe it would be better if instead of me getting all pissy I just sit back and laugh. I'll admit that was kinda funny

[bailgun]

it's the interweb. if you take it seriously, you're in for a bumpy ride.

[lopli]

Yeah. I was in kind of a bad mood yesterday. I get like that sometimes.

This weekend I was treated to pretty much the worst case of road rash on the palms of my hands that I've ever had.  Since hands are neigh impossible to keep a bandage on, I'm using Newskin on them.  Putting that stuff on hurts worse than scraping the skin off did, and it makes the wounds look super hideous, but its the only way to go.

I thought super-glue was for gash type injuries, like to glue the flap of skin back down in lieu of stitches.  I'm a little skeptical about using it where there are just big raw patches where the skin is gone, but I'm open to trying it next time if you think its a better way to go.  I'll spare you guys a picture of the carnage.  I showed my work buddy Jake for fun and he ran away.

pics, plz.


and superglue is the cure-all.
