I've never broken a bone but I think I've had about 60 stitches in total

[–] Rhynoplaz@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago

Never broke a bone club!

[–] Skua@kbin.earth 6 points 10 months ago (2 children)

I've broken several. Cannot recommend it, in fact it is quite unpleasant.

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

But if you had to pick, which was your favorite?

[–] Skua@kbin.earth 4 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Nose, because the other three I've broken all made me unable to use an arm for a while and it is fucking infuriating to try to put socks on with only one hand every morning

[–] lath@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

Big toe first, over to little toe, then go underneath and pull towards the heel.

Don't believe random people on the internet! Get a hammer or a tall ledge and find out yourself

[–] neidu2@feddit.nl 4 points 10 months ago

Same, except I've counted my stitches: 102

[–] bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de 2 points 10 months ago

The only bone I've ever broken was my sternum. I couldn't do sports for several weeks but had no cast or anything to show off. I could only sit there and let my body do the healing.

I've fractured plenty but never had a complete break. Fractures still suck though.
