I keep dislocating my left shoulder. My left shoulder has a Hill-Sachs deformity which is a dent in the ball part of the ball-and-socket joint. The dent is the size of a "Shark Bite" (don't ask me why it's called a Shark Bite. It was upgraded to that from "Ping-Pong Ball Dent". I could get that). Generally, I dislocate my shoulder from seizures... but I've had three flukes (one which has happened this week unfortunately) which just make me ![[Mad]](mad.gif)
Fluke #1 - Jump Rope: During school, I grabbed a jump rope and used it by myself to consume time before playing pickle ball. I had my shoulders locked, and I was swinging the rope using my wrists. After a few swings... *POP* "AUGH!" I had to go to the ER (I can't pop my shoulder back in, even today) for conscious sedation (that's a combination of a pain killer, morphine, and a sedative that produces amnesia if anything). It took a long time to get out of the hospital.
Fluke #2 - Lat Tower: After my Jump Rope incident (six weeks after), I was looking for things to do. I realized that I could use the Lat Tower. So, I'm like, "Alright!" 3x sets of 10x reps, very low weight (80 lbs). I do the reps with ease, but on the third set, I miscounted the reps, and on the last set... *POP* "CRAP!". ER + Morphine + Versed + 7 male nurses ![[Frown]](frown.gif) , 1 male doctor, 3 female nurses shoved aside + 12 hours = Conscious Sedation. Damn it.
Fluke #3 - (This Week) ?: I wake up at 7:18 AM and find that my arms are extended in front of me. So, I move my arms slightly (less than an inch, in opposing directions <- ->)... *POP* "No... NO!" I check my arm since I know (since the 6th dislocation) what my arm feels like when it's dislocated, and sure enough, it is. Time to go to the ER. Surprisingly, it's not crowded, but it still takes hellishly long to get out because the entire staff is screwing off more than a family of five at Disneyland.
Though these flukes make me angry, they also make me laugh because of how stupid they are. But, which one is the stupidest? I can't come to a conclusion. Can I get some opinions?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What are some of your stupid injuries?
EDIT: If you're curious why I'm posting this at 1:14 PDT, it's because I have to intentionally stay up for an EEG. Bleh.

Anyone remember koosh ball? Those things that have a bunch of rubber strings and such?
Well, when you're a little kid, it always seems like a good idea to try and get that up into the glass ceiling light covering. Except when you miss, it hits and shatters the whole damned thing, spraying shards of glass everywhere including one piece right by the corner of my mouth. Got plastic surgery adn everythign to make it look normal again.

I can top anyone's.
I broke a beer bottle over my head, and a shard of glass got lodged in my forehead. 4 stitches later, and I've got a pretty cool scarface.

I'm so glad I'm not you and have my shoulder pop out at weird times. Also things like lock jaw and such. Gross.

I can't think of any really good stories at the moment about me... I mean I know I've run face first into a wooden bird feeder... broken my arm by slipping on a soccer ball when trying to fake someone out... but I do have one about my brother that involves me.
My friend and I were using our remote control cars... that was the shiznat back then... and suddenly I determined that mine was a piece of shit. The thing wasn't working too well as it was so I decided to beat the shit out of it. Yes you read correctly. My friend and I took turns throwing it up in the air and seeing who could make the most parts fly when it hit the concrete. Well, I had to go somewhere, I don't remember where, but my brother came over to tell me I had to leave. While he is doing this, I decide I'd like to learn discus. I yell at him to "watch this" and I spin around and chuck the car as hard as I can. I let go obviously a little too late because it ended up smacking my brother square in the face. The plastic cover had already been broken off so he was hit by sharp pieces in the body of the car. He had a lot of cuts on his face and one that needed stiches.
My dad has also done some stupid shit. When he was a kid he managed to slice open his shoe and with it his foot on his bike chain... he's also got some scars from when he attempted to ride a pig... and another time from when he tried to jump off a train at 40 mph tbat he snuck on to get a free ride.

Huh...
My friend has this exact problem with both his shoulders. But I don't know if he has a deformity or not because to this day he refuses to go to a doctor for it. Its kinda funny though cause he's a mechanic. He'd be laying under a car, when his shoulders pop out of socket. He yells for a while then pops them back in. To this day I still don't know how he does that; it's like when Bender's arms fell off and by himself puts them back on. ![[Confused]](confused.gif)
The only advice I have is to try to not tell your friends know about it; in a fight, I just have to karate chop him in certain places in his shoulders and 'pop'. Though the fights don't last long after that, due to my not being able to control my laughter at him swinging his paralyzed arms at me. Funny sight.

I once landed on a cement floor and got a head injury. That evening, I felt an odd desire to break rocks on my head. Go figure.
Also, I'm told I got kicked by a horse once.

I once heard of this little girl who swallowed a coin and died of this massive fever. Scary that. Survive the constriction of your airway and die of some high fever.

I cracked my head open on the ceiling in the cellar when I was 6. I was playing "Fireman Sam", and I jumped for some godawful reason. Bled like a stuck Tory.

I've been lucky / sheltered and haven't broken any bones. I did manage to burst the stitches on my tonsils when I was seven and had just had them taken out. I had to be rushed into the hospital and lost a lot of blood.
Oh yeah, there was the time I threw a softball up for myself to catch, missed, and gave myself a bloody nose right before the game. Then the time I wasn't paying attention while I was pitching and the catcher's throw hit me in the gut... And the time I missed the ball as catcher and took it in the nuts...

A friend's older brother (who was recently drafted into MLB; Not a top pick though) a long time ago in little league was hit a line drive... straight into his crotch. His nuts would've been screwed (no pun intended) if it weren't for the cup... which split in half.
