My Monday got off to a quite literally cracking start! I managed to trip over my daughter's foot, thought it hurt ! Just got back from the hospital and my toe is flaming broken. So for today I'm at home with it elevated and it's strapped together as have to just wait for it to heal.
First time I've ever broken anything, so have you ever broken any bones? |

A friend of mine broke her toe a couple of days ago.
Her problem is she's getting married soon and is going to have a real issue finding suitable wedding shoes.
She's freaking out at the moment. |

Poor you  I don't suppose there's much that can be done for a toe I've broken ribs, collar bone, spine, and most recently 'snapped' my shoulder blade :/ hope you get well soon  |

"Over the years I've broken my ribs, all of my fingers at some point, nose and my leg.
You're a proper Frank you are "
All in the line of duty apart from the nose. |

I'm still recovering from a broken bone in mu wrist. Walked into a door at work last month which was daft of me.
I had a temporary cast on for a week then a fibreglass cast on for 3 weeks. Now I have a wriststrap on which I can take off and put back on just so I can exercise my hand. Still sore as hell though. |

"I boke my wrist in a riding accident about 18 years ago and when they x-rayed it the consultant said "I see you broke your arm before"....that was the first I'd heard of it  "
OMG!!! It was 27 years ago  I was 30 at the time I had a serious time warp moment then |

In a car crash I broke my skull and pelvis.
Have broken my arm 3 times,1 wrist,nose 4 times,all sport related.
Left leg,right foot,toes fingers and ribs all due to everyday gormlessness.
I've had more stitches than the bayeux tapestry.
I'm like a pound land version of Steve Austin |

I've had lots of muscle, joint and tissue injuries, including a couple of sprained ankles that bruised and swelled right up to my knee and took a year to heal properly but (touch wood) I've not broken a bone.
I've only ever needed stitches following surgery.
I've been fairly lucky in that regard. |

No, just got to keep it strapped to the next toe and should heal within 6 weeks.
Sounds like I've got off lightly though reading all of the posts. |

Awww I know that's rotten. I have a friend who is very poorly in hospital so a broken toe is nothing.
Maybe she could get something specially made that looks wedding like ? |

She's got a couple of weeks yet. The swelling will be better by then. I do feel for her though. |

I've broke my little toe , my thumb, my nose twice and fractured my skull twice.
My little toe was by far the most painful and the most difficult to heal. |

I've been told several times by various doctors that I'm gonna get arthritis like a bitch! I already get stupid aches and pains when the weather turns damp.
Life goes on though.... |

I had a trimalleolar fracture with dislocation. Nearly lost my foot.
Now have an ankle plate and pins.
Was on my leaving party, and slipped on
ice. I was d*unk but didnt realise until long after the incident that my so called friends ( people I had worked with for 15 years )had been spiking my drinks I don't drink much, so you can imagine the effect.... |

Broken more than half the bones in my body at one time or another fingers, hand wrists elbows collar bone both sides, skull neck ribs pelvis thigh knee shin foot and toes. Many from horse training and racing accidents a few from motorcycle racing, most embarrassing was from tripping over on my way to the plane for skydiving!
Took me ages to learn I am not indestructible.
but broken toes are so damned annoying you have my sympathy just hope you don't have any fancy shoe occasions coming up |
