For me, it was eating a taquito and getting stabbed in my lip by the tortilla.

I twisted/bent my knee while dancing with a girl at a college party. I was on the floor in pain. She didn't even realise or saw it. Limped my way back to my hostel. Next day she asked me "where were you during the party?" 😡😂
My friend popped her knee out of place at her older sister's bachelorette party doing a dance. She didn't even finish one drink
I've injured myself via a trumpet multiple times. Basically, you sneeze, your head goes forward, and you bite your lip on the mouthpiece since you were holding your instrument in ready position.
I once hit my lip with my drumsticks while playing suspended symbols
In first or second grade I slammed my entire hand in the car door when my mom and I were going to the grocery store. With automatic locks, my mom had to manually unlock the door and come around and open my door to free my hand. The most unfortunate part was for all the pain I thought I'd at least break a bone so I could show off a cast at school, but all I needed was a bandaid 😞
I got cut and burned by a waffle maker handle at the same time....twice...
Tore a ligament in my leg/foot without having had an accident, 3 months it took to walk without a limp!
Was in horror house at some fest. Saw a weird ghost decoration. Fight and flight kicked in. Punched a f*****g steel machine and broke fist.
i accidentally set my hand on fire after trying to set off fireworks with a broken lighter.
i was trying to make a vlog of my family at the water garden, and my little brother ran up to me, started speaking gibberish, and pushed me into the water and i cut my elbow and i still have the scar
I did such a terrible job at SFX makeup for cosplay that I ended up getting pinkeye.
there was a pebble in my campfire and it exploded and a piece hit me directly in my forehead
I broke my nose playing mulch as a kid... There were these thingies that you stepped on and they were so far apart. Needless to say my mom was not happy when both sides of my nose was broken and the heavy accented nurse called me a name far off from mine..
Running in the dark, barefoot. There was a small tree that was staked with wire to keep it stable until it was bigger. Foot hit the stake, toe stayed behind
I was standing in front of the Gas Station door when my mom opens the door,(I was wearing slides) And my toenail got bent and started bleeding, we has bandages in the car so I was lucky :D
In second grade I was pushing myself off of the ground on some desks and swinging. I came down weird one time and sprained my ankle. The worst part is that when I asked the teachers to call my mom because it hurt so much, they told me to quit being a baby. It was swollen to about the size of a baseball and yellow and purple. I had to limp around using my umbrella as a cane
Sister was chasing me, I turned around and my body suddenly froze and I couldn't move, sister ran into me, making my nose start bleeding. Funny looking back at it.
When I was 12 I was in turkey for a vacation. We went to the beach and within 5 min I get a throbbing pain in my foot and barely make it out of the Mediterranean. 40 painful minutes later and two shots in the butt I find out I had got stung by a weaver fish.We got prescription meds for awhile. The whole thing together(ER + prescription) was 38 dollars.
i was a kid and i was bopping a balloon around our living room where my sister was also doing yoga. i tripped over her and landed on my kneecap and my leg hurt for a day. also in kindergarten i went down a slide with my head facing down and got a cut under my eye
Age 5, sister and I dropped a 50lb weight on my big toe. While mom called for a ride to the hospital, I tried to get up and leaned on the coffee table, slicing my ear almost in half. At 29, the toenail had to be removed.

Do you kno like when you’re walking and your foot/ankle goes sideways/inwards? And then you lean on it. Yea..hurts like a mother######…I do it every other 2 day’s probably…
I have a scar on my wrist from scratching a mosquito bite with a pen cap lol
i have so many mosquito bite scars TwT can't stop scratching i'm alergic
I was unhooking a wagon from the ATV after moving around livestock. As I took out the pin from the wagon, my forearm pressed up against the ATV exhaust pipe. It was so hot, that I thought it was cold and held my arm there for 7 SECONDS!! Finally felt the searing pain in my arm and yanked it away. Best part of the story? I didn't realize how bad it was, so I kept on working in the fields and got sweat and grim into the burn. Finally went in the house and put stuff on it. I still have the scars.
Fell down two small steps and sprained my ankle with nerve damage. It’s been since September and still not healed.( sorry letting out some frustration lol)
In my kitchen, right next to the door that goes to the garage is an upper cabinet where the trash bags are kept. I’m getting ready to take out trash. It goes like this: open cabinet, get new trash bag, put new trash bag in can, pick up bag that’s going out, open garage door, take one step…SPLAT.
Flat on the floor, stunned, severe pain to my forehead. Realized I forgot to close the upper cabinet door and that’s what knocked me flat on my @$$. Still have the dent in my forehead and that was over 10 years ago.
I fell up the stairs and broke my hand. Another time I sliced myself on the couch
1. I once broke 3 tows (non of them the big toe) in 3 different situations within 2 weeks.
2. I fell of a chair and got a bruise on my leg that then got infected from the inside and had to be operated on without anesthesia or any other numbing agent as they thought i was allergic.
3.The joints in my feet are so loose that the bones pop out sometimes and hit nerves and tendons.
4. I once slipped while grinding a shoe heel down and grinded my thumb open to the bone
there was a pebble in my campfire and it exploded and a piece hit me directly in my forhead
I broke snapped a bone in my arm in half when I was launched from my three wheeled scooter when I was little. I was trying to show off and went down too steep a hill. Wear pads and helmets kids and use the breaks!
I was in my early teens and helping setting up a volleyball net with my uncle for a family reunion. They call my uncle "Hook". He lost his arm in an accident and wears a prosthetic hook in place of a hand. I was crouched down holding the pole and he was pounding it in the ground with a huge rock. Well, he dropped the rock, probably 6 feet give or take, right on top of my head and it knocked me out for a few seconds so he sent me in the house with the women to patch me up. He came in a few minutes later to check on me and said, "trackin' doe" because I left a blood trail right into the house.
When I was 8 I tripped over a kid and broke my arm, still don't know how I did it.

ack, sorry for the double post. i left the page when it was still posting and i thought it hadn't posted so i posted it again
Fell out of the top bunk. It was one of those ones with railings. I was going down to smack my cousin and fell.
honestly when there's a bunk bed there will be a way off. i nearly injured myself multiple time when i was younger
I lifted a frozen turkey at the store I worked at. Never lift from below your waist, then twist - I ripped all the muscles off my ribcage. Worst pain in my life and I'll suffered from that injury forever. The fun bit? I drove myself home (was afraid of the ambulance cost), but then my mom wouldn't take me to the hospital. She didn't take me until I was passing in and out of consciousness from the agony. I don't even remember the drive, it was horrible.
oh no! you american? here in america we have horrible ambulance costs. hope you've recovered well!
Fractured my middle finger by twisting it up in the bedsheets while in a very deep sleep. At some point during the night I ripped my finger out causing the fracture. No one believed me when I told them how it happened. But they did believe it when I lied and said my SO At the time did it.
Oh boy. I’ve mentioned it before on this site but that was a while ago.
So my family was having a BBQ and we were roasting marshmallows to make s’mores. Mine caught on fire and, while trying to blow it out, I may have…accidentally… given my cheek a 2nd degree burn.
at least it wasn't worse :) my dad once was trying to light a bunch of weeds on fire and they wouldn't catch so he poured gasoline on the pile and we had an explosion in the backyard. only first and second degrees on him tho, nothing extremely bad
When I was younger I forgot which doors were automatic and which weren’t, so I have a scar on my cheek from running into a Wendy’s door. I was such an intelligent child XD
oh no XD once i was at my grandmas on my dad's side and my cousins from out of state had come for a bit. one of my cousins ran smack dab into the glass door leading outside because he thought it was open XD grandma had a sticky note on the glass for a couple years after the incident
I closed a car door with my right hand and somehow closed it on my right wrist. I've a scar now
I fell down the stairs while having 2 pop-its over my eyes. I knocked out 2 teeth
When I was about 14 I was chasing my friend. A single finger ripped into his T-shirt and he changed direction and I fell over and broke my elbow. I didn’t even hurt but I couldn’t straighten my arm. No one believe me, not even my mum so I went to the hospital. And yep shattered elbow that I still can’t straighten my arm 17 years later
Running down the stairs in rolled bell bottom pants. Caught one foot in the other, flew down four stairs, found myself lying inside the bathroom on the landing which was 90 degrees from the stairs I was coming down, with no idea how I got there, not realizing my ankle was messed up until I tried to get up.
When I was a baby i fell of the bed and hit my head on a humidifier. It cut me right above my eye, even tho it wasn't sharp. My parents still dont know how it give me that big of a scratch. I still have the scar right above my eye to this day. I always include it in my self portraits of myself.
I hurt my toe from smashing my phone down after reading Nathaniels posts
A few years ago I tripped and broke my arm, I still don't know how I managed that one.

Broke my collarbone by falling head-first out of a car seat onto the hard floor of my garage. So, yeah, I face-planted on concrete.
I took off my earning, accidentally dropped it on the floor. Somehow I managed to step on it and the whole thing except for the stud pierced my heel. Weirdest part was the fact that it didn't even hurt a lot, I just pulled it out and after cleaning it went about my usual business.
Four weeks ago I walked the dog to his private-place in the garden, slipped and twisted my ankle. Dog is 6 months old now and thought this was a new game called "hooman climbing frame", so while I was sitting in the mud and dealing with the pain of a torn ligament, he was having the time of his life, invited me to play and jumped onto me. He had so much fun that he even forgot he needed to pee in the first place... luckily, I suppose.
Two days later that little cheeky devil also stealed my crutches. Husband was no help. Alarmed by my yelling he came into the room and couldn't stop laughing.
I was pouring boiling water into my to-go cup and some of it splashed onto my bare belly, blistering it. Then I had to drive Uber all day with the seat belt rubbing on it. Ouch.
A bowling pin fell from the top of a bookshelf and hit me it the nose, breaking it. I became an instant running faucet of blood. The bookshelf was not secured to the wall and I when the curved legs of the rocking chair that I was sitting in, rolled over the bottom shelf ledge, it tipped the shelf and the pin fell. I had a friend sitting across from me when it happened. After getting all my good tea towels bunched up under my nose, she drove me to the ER. My husband met us. For the next 4 hours my husband and I were asked together and separately how I broke my nose by the medical staff. A week later, after surgery but still groggy from anesthesia, a team of nurses were at my bedside and asking me how I broke my nose. My husband said he never felt so judged! A Bowling pin weighs 8.5 lbs and is made from two solid pieces of maple. The bowling pin that fell on me had been made into a trophy and that's why it was on the shelf. Needless to say, the trophy found a new home! Dm me if you want to see a picture of the trophy.
I was trying to get a bottle of pills out of my dog’s mouth. He thought I was playing with him so he was running around the den. I ended up punching my closed fist into the sofa ottoman when he jerked his head the opposite direction. I severely dislocated my middle finger on my right hand. ER visit and $6000 hospital bill. This was April 6, 2022 and my finger is still swollen in February of 2023.
Was trying to get the middle out of a fidget spinner with my teeth. Chipped tooth. Idk if that counts as an injury tho. I have epilepsy and I had a grand mal while I was on the swingset, it's funny story, but I don't want to make this post too long.
sorry i came late but i have two stories. the first one is while playling virtual golf once i stabbed myself with my own fingernail becasue of a bad grip twice and i have sprained my wrist because a box filled with paper hit me ( which i also fell off of before it hit me
I jumped weird onto an empty cardboard box of potato chips at work, corner caught my leg. Ended up with a triangular three inch deep wound. Cleaned myself up in the shower and taped myself back together and left it alone for ten days. No infection happened, so I saved myself a $3,000 trip to the emergency room.
ooooh but yea cardboard hurts and doctors need 3 grand for some reason
