injuries and pain tolerance

I have a pretty high pain threshold. Borderline masochism but, not really.

 

My worst injury was a bad sunburn some years back and I have a fairly low pain tolerance.

 

I cut my index finger off one time....didn't hurt till they put the buggar back on.

 

I get ovarian cysts, which hurt like a fucker. The worst pain I ever felt......probably burning the inside of my arm on a 460 degree oven right near my my elbow. I rinsed it and kept working for another 5 hours, never put anything on it and now it's a nice big scar. Then the next week I burnt over that scar, but 50 degrees cooler.

 

I was beat up by ten Cambodians during a drug deal gone bad and didn't realize I was cut up on my shoulder until I got home and the girl who drove me was like "YOU BLED ALL OVER MY SEATS!" I thought it wasn't my blood until I checked again. I ended up getting a few stitches from my friend and that I took some ibuprofen, was back at work the next day.

Also I flipped head over bike while clipped in and I had mad gashes all over my face arms and legs. Walked it off.

 

i usually play through my injuries haha

i broke my collar bone and continued to swim, play basketball, baseball, volleyball, etc for the next 2 weeks at camp.

i fractured my right foot and continued to go through with with TKD belt test, played soccer and basketball.

inverted my ankle and continued to play sports

only time i've ever stopped playing was from my few concussions - and only because it was a major safety concern

 

i've never been seriously injured. or if i was, i brushed it off because i'm not a pussy about it.

 

I've played football through a fractured foot, dislocated thumb, broken pinky, both big toes broken, and one time when my big toe nail was ripped off my toe....then folded in half and cut its way back down inside my toe before I took my cleats off. I've only been taken off the field two times. One was when I tore my calf muscle (BAD FUCKIN DEAL), and the other was when I was in a 4 way hit that left 3 of us knocked out cold.


I miss football

 

i miss you!
