[Closed] Current Injuries - what you got?

I've got a bit of a cough and a couple of old blood blisters on some toes.
13 haematomas sounds much more impressive.

Still got my ruined ankle. Had a month off the bike, only just got back on last week and I've been told to go "at tick over" by the physio.

Nothing without pictures.

i tried to remove my lh index finger tip in a rotating disc/caliper interaction

Either knees that feel swollen at the front if I put my seat down, or one that hurts like hell at the back if I put it up.

Have come to the conclusion one leg is shorter than the other.

Also think I'm developing asma, can the cold bring that on?

Big graze on my elbow, bruised toenail.

4 stitches in my teabags after having the snip.

Do I win?

My elbow is still a bit scabby after this...

I have a bit of a rash on my bum too from yesterday after riding home in heavy rain with what felt like 3 pounds of grit down my shorts.

Wonky thyroid affecting both body and mind. 👿

[b]Polite request[/b]

Guys - please - no more pics. 😯

Full ACL Re-repture

Nowt *touch wood*

Cool scar cheesybeanz - almost body mod territory.

Getting over having disc removed at l5 - s1 - legs are killing me.

A massively swollen Cantbebothered gland pumping it's rancid filth into my blood stream. 🙁

Trouble is I can't be bothered to do anything about it.....

got a dodgy ticker that is keeping me from riding..............
got a foul temper cos of it...............is that a illness ❓

I've got a big spot on my right cheek, and flaky scalp.

Femeroacetabular impingement in both hips not ridden for 3 years 👿

Hey, they're just innards CG, we've all got 'em. 😉

a dodgy left shoulder that decides to pop out whenever it wants...

I have a small graze and bruise on my knee.

idle bone

broken heart, sigh.
various bruises
messy shin

loverly

Not a physical injury, but a damn, right nasty cold which I have had for 12 days 🙁

It's getting me right down 🙁

Two weeks since I had a plate inserted to fix l/h snapped collar bone.

Chipped r/h elbow the week before the above.

Just finished a course of antibiotics for a dose of cellulitus from a pedal strike.

Praying thats my run of bad luck over...

Bunch of clumsy ****kers aren't you? Try keeping the bike the right way round, eh?

Me, I've got a knackered shoulder that won't heal 100%, leaving me with a niggling pain.

Fractured knuckle and pulled ligaments in my hand. Colleagues assume it's from riding my bike. It's actually because I fell down the stairs (sober and everything).

Screws in my clavicle and a back that gave out in July. Oh, and a mysterious lump behind my right shoulder.

Got the end of a bout of ITB that's really annoying more than anything else. I need to get doing my physio again, that and more weights and running.

other than that, just the usual aches and pains.

Dislocated right shoulder 5 weeks ago
A bursitus on the left shoulder, seems to be clearing up now
A Heamotoma in the groin where I impaled myself when dislocating my shoulder

A pain under the ball of my big toe which sounds insignificant but has completely curtailed all running. I've had to go to spin classes three times this week instead 🙁

My thyroxine (for thyroid problem) has also just been upped in dose again after the hospital discovered that was too low.

That was when I was in hospital getting assessed for a hernia op.

They also deferred that op (and the circumcision I'm also queued up to get) because I've got a cough, but my GP didn't seem to think that was serious enough to kill off with yet another prescription.

And my mum has just Friended me on Facebook. That's quite injurious.

****ed shoulder had MRI on it last week and go back to the hospital next Friday to find out if I need an operation to put it right.

Not advisable to use your shoulder as a brake 🙁

tiredness, had it all week.

I've Got a Mild case of Manthrax at the moment

4 tendon issues in my ankle, shin, wrist and elbow, a slightly tweaked hamstring, a very sore VMO muscle, lots of tiredness, and really feeling the effects of long term stress. I also didn't sleep last night and have a thumping headache today.

My physio now gives me mates rate as i'm there so often. The receptionist greets me with "hi claire" but when other clients come in, they have to say who they are there to see and what their name is... 😕

Cinnamon-girl - i've tried to email you but i got a bounce back. Is your hotmail address still the same? I can't email you on fb either!

General anaesthetic and 10 stitches 5 weeks ago, but now healing up nicely and I'm back on the bike...

A reasonable chunk off the tip of my index finger on my left hand, the result of trying to cut up a lime for the bazzillionth G&T. Uncunning.

I have been bleating about it all week and some of the injuries on here have made me decide to shut up about it all and be thankful.

Got a hooked plate holding my right collarbone together - another op in a few months to take it out 🙁

Regarding those with nagging shoulder injuries above - I had a painful right arm after a rotator cuff injury and couldn't get rid of the pain with stretching and exercise - it was scar tissue I think as an MRI looked ok.

But I fixed it when I swam round an island in the Maldives using just my arms in a breastroke fashion sweeping from above my head to right down near my crotch. Was snorkling so my head was facing down and I had the fish and reef to look at, and progress was slow (1.5 hrs to get round the island) but it fixed my arm nicely and built up my back muscles very quickly.

I have said this in other threads but worth repeating here as the results were so good and if anyone else is struggling with a shoulder/back problem...

2 weeks all-inclusive was £1250ish but when you add up the cost of all the physio appointments and gym membership that had no results it was good value indeed - plus all the beers were included :-).

Obviously I will be going again this year 🙂

Shoulder/upper arm is still not right after a crash on the big FOD tabletop at the end of August. Physio exercises and some mild dumbell things are slowly helping it to improve. I can ride, its just if I go OTB and land on this arm again it'll probably put me back to square one. So I have no confidence at the minute and probably won't til its healed properly 🙁

I have a slight sniffle from this mornings ride 😉

5 cm square section of skin removed from back, (15 stitches) and a enlarged spleen giving constant pain. Also my knee is hurting again.

Pneumonia 🙁

Slipped disc at the bottom of my back that is taking ages to heal and a prolapsed or protruding disc at the thoracic region, had that for 6 years now NHS sucks the big time!

Am I going to be anally probed in airports now??

Got this xray done today..the middle screw IS positioned correctly not bodged!!

thumb nail growing back after it was removed by a door on a forklift at work 4 weeks ago(you would think i would know better as i fix them for a living) general amount of cuts on both hand and just about got over the cold that been going on forever(3weeks) 😐

monkey ribs.

cant lie on my front without going ooh ooh aah aah.

Lump on face not from riding. dropped a truck power steering pump on my face, it hurt, alot.

Toothache, started about 4.30, and the dentist is shut til Monday,
Beer and drugs it is then 😥

Sprained ankle - six months on and I've just started (gentle) running.....It's ok on the bike though.

Crushed heel and a Talus in 4 pieces. 7 pins and a plate in there.
50% loss of movement.
Although it is nearly 8 years old it is like walking around with a badly sprained ankle all the time.
Hope this counts as current as it always hurts!

Until i read soops i thought i might have a worthwhile contribution. Dude Thats a ****er of an injury.... If youre still riding amazing...

I have done both clavicles, thumb ligs, neck disc and femoral artery...

Clavicles one healed k another resected at lateral end.

Thumb ligs op to repair pretty well useless. Great surgeon but really bad injury and crap patient so all a bit rubbish

neck disc k now after 3 months sleeping on the floor

the biggy was the femoral artery. Someone mentionwd impaling themselves earlier. The same thing split my artery, it tamponaded and had repair and now its just dead weird but blood goes to my thigh and beyond so all good.

Majority of this is in 18 months of 2008.

And riding again

Thats my aches in summary

graze to elbow and knee when failwd to unclip when virtually stationary outside my garage after weds ride. and a few post ride beers...... 😉

my most recent was concussion 4 weeks ago. but i generally am battered 🙂

I've got the squits. Fourth day. Bad times.

sore nuts, had to have a scan 'n it's making me rather grumpy.

Menopause. Does that count? 😆 Makes me transiently insane.

Some of you lot are real badly injured, be careful on your bicycles!

Frozen shoulder after breaking collarbone in July. Knee still ****ed from same crash.

.........a broken heart!

lol

6 stitches in bridge of nose
8 stitches above top lip
2 stitches under bottom lip
36 stitches inside mouth

Oh, and mouthful of Belgian toothpaste (one for fellow Darkside followers)

Dislocated my shoulder on Saturday and my ankle is still knackered from last month.

tibial compartment syndrome - i haven't run more than 300m in 5 years. it finished my hockey playing, and i'm now REALLy wanting to get rid of it - keen for some (alps based) fell running.

Singlespeeder's knee

I tried to take a chunk out of my ankle with a chainring the other week and it keeps weeping...

I also did something silly post pub in the snow to my thumb which seems to have rectified itself (mostly).

Oh and I don't have a heart any more, just a swinging brick...

I am thankful I haven't any of the serious shit up there^^^ nasty!

Continual bone-ache from the Pamidronate to stabalise my bone mets.

Cycling in the second week hurts hard.

But I am double-hard, so I suck it up... 😉

Ruptured achilles tendon. No riding for me post-op for at least three months so at least expect to be safe at home 🙁

I just pulled my * off but it was a good *. Overall I'd say it was worth it.

I fell down the stairs and somehow managed to rip the bottom off my big toe as I also twisted my ankle!

Soops, I got a scar very similar to that from 10 years ago and it still hurts from time to time.

Dislocated my shoulder at CyB 20 months ago and still giving me loads of problems. I think the other one is having sympathy pains too.

Had a bad cough/chest for 3 months.

Had a bad back since a motorbike crash in Ibiza in 1997 and it, like the shoulder, gives me a good deal of pain on a daily basis.

But I'm a scouser so I'm hard and don't complain.

..except to the wife, and anyone else who'll listen...

Oh, and I'm bald too...
