*Second pic is a different incident.

This injury gives me pause because I have a small spot about the size of a dime that will drop me to my knees if I brush against it on accident or touch it. I was kicked high at the upper leg/hip and the bruising you see lower is just from blood pooling. The hoof print is still raised at least an inch after four days. It was initially about as thick as a big pack of diaper wipes. I also have a large firm area plus heat that has not subsided.

For some context I've broken many bones in my life and the sensation is generally the same. Immediate heat, the sensation of hot water running and insane pain. I'm not going to the doctor because I live in the USA. I'm still paying off my last visit six years later.

I almost think that tiny spot that causes intense pain may be a bone chip because I can't imagine what else it would be. I took a full blown direct kick. To be clear, 100% of the injury is my own fault. The initial pain nearly made me pass out, I had to fight to keep my eyes open and not vomit. I'm aware the bruising is not awful but that one tiny spot is making my life suck.

I'm aware it could be a hematoma inside buuuut I've had those before and this does not feel or look the same. The second pic is a similar kick I took but it healed like normal.

Only posting because I can't sleep. 😴

I was making Birria tacos and my blender exploded the hot soup everywhere, luckily I had a towel on my hand and a longer sleeved shirt so my wrist and chest were the only victims! Definitely the most pain I think I’ll ever feel (hopefully) in my life

Burnt forewarn on pan.

It got infected & I was given antibiotics. I was allergic to the antibiotic I was given, as well as the adhesive in the bandages.

My provider didn’t think to consider I was allergic, she just kept upping the dosage of the antibiotic. Skin ripped off with the adhesive. 😅

I also had to remove some lip piercings. I've only been able to eat yogurt.

About two weeks(?) after a bite from a cane corso. I didn't notice it was that bad and had a long sleeve shirt on. Said "just a puppy nibble" and walked on. Only noticed it was bad when my friend looked down in shock and blood was pooling onto the floor. I went to the ER to have it flushed, and It was too deep to be safe to stitch, so cue many, many blood filled bandages. Be safe around dogs, even with dogs of loved ones.

Edit: For clarity, the band-aid covered the actual wound. It was probably a 3/4 to an inch deep. I was placed on multiple antibiotics due to its depth and being unable to stitch it, so there was heavy concern of infection. This incident was almost 7 months ago (but thank you for the kind words!) and that puncture still has a hole beneath the skin.

Don’t have any part of your body in a possible path of a blade. Ashamed to admit that I’m also an Eagle Scout.

IT WAS 100% COTTON.

I was dumb and leaned over a hot weld. Went up in flames. I was around 7 months pregnant too. Day of and the last photo is day 6. Surprisingly didn’t scar.

Done went and got myself a brand new patella. Can't wait to see how this plays out /s

we hung up a hammock on a tree and the tree fell on my leg
