Thread about scars/wounds

[Romblen]

I have 4 scars, only two of which I can explain. I have one on my arm that's actually pretty hard to see, I got that one from burning myself on an oven, what fun. I have one right above my lip, again it's really hard to see, I got it from tripping on the sidewalk when I was three years old.
I also have one on my knuckle of my right index finger, I have no idea where it came from, it's just always been there. My favorite one is the scar on my right foot, middle toe. It looks like a sideways T. I have no idea where it came from.

Well apparently as a baby I crawled like the commandos do and I did it on gravel, so my arms are covered with little white scars. Add that to all the burn scars from when I used to weld. I didn't wear anything over my arms during the summer, it was too warm. Nothing really stands out it's just all right there

I have been stabbed, but sadly it only left a tiny sad excuse for a scar. I was injured while in the military and that left a nasty set of scars. I have a couple more from getting hit by a car. One from rolling down a hill. One from burning my arm. Tons more that I have no real idea where they came from.

Got one on by Bicep from this crazy girl attacking me at a concert, people seem to think they look like freakish stretch marks. Then two on my knee from surgery, one on my other knee from a hockey stick and a little one on my face from....you guessed it. A coat hanger >.<

Please, elaborate on this coat hanger story. It sounds quite interesting.

I have a smallish (about 5cm) scar on my upper right arm from moving while getting an injection when I was either 4 or 6 (can't remember).

Other than that, I've only have a few tiny round ones from picking at my skin to get rid of pimple-like bumps which turned out to be a perfectly normal aspect of it. That, or scab picking, but they fade really fast so I can't find them

 

[Commissar Sae]

I have a rather large scar on ym right knee from when I jumped off a bed and skidded across the floor into a portruding nail. Yeah, I was a stupid kid...
I've got another one of my right ear where It was split. As well as a pair small round ones one my left arm and my chest, not quote sure where those ones came from but look a bit like low caliber bullet wounds.
Then the scar on my right elbow from slipping on black ice while running to the train station. The scar on my wrist were I stopped a cat from diving in front of said train and he thanked me by raking my skin. And a number of small nicks on my hands from hobby knives.

I have a lot of scars actually. xD One on my right forearm, one on my ankle, a bunch on my knees, one on my calve, one on the back of my head...etc. They all have a nice story to them too. xD The one on my calve was from riding on a motorcycle with shorts on, burned that calve good. Didn't help that I kept picking at it though, I was perhaps 10-11 when it happened.

 

[NotAPie]

A tiny scar below my eye, can't even see it much anymore unless you look really hard.
Anyway if I remember correctly, It could be from this fucking cat that attacked me when I was about 4, but it looks too small to be that but that's all that I can think of because I can't really remember how I got it.

If it counts, I also have a bump on the top of my head just above my forehead, you can't see it but you can feel it, I got it when I was about 7 or so I was in the playground at my school then from seemingly out of nowhere a rock about the size of a bottle cap hits me in the head and I fell down bleeding from a cut or something like that. Some of my friends took me to the nurse and when the bleeding stopped, she told me that it was the size of a eraser, it's gotten smaller since then.

 

[Hellz_Barz]

no joke a scar on my hand from running into a tree when i was little. i was playin tips then all of a sudden a tree jumped in my way.

 

[Deadman Walkin]

Please, elaborate on this coat hanger story. It sounds quite interesting.

IF YOU INSIST >.< I was 5 or 6, really young and at my day care, we thought it would be a great idea to play Indians. So we grabs coat hangers (the metal ones) and used them as bows. HOWEVER a girl thought it would be a good idea to hit my face with the sharp end of the hanger. It ended pretty bad, because blood ran down my face and I cried my face off. Alas, it is still there.....STILL, after 12 years.

 

[mrhappyface]

I have cuts and scars all over my legs but there's a scar on my face that basically goes over my entire right eyebrow.

 

[Xyphon]

I've got a big scar on my right hand where I had to have surgery for two boxer fractures.

I've got too many scars on my arms from a very grim time in my life.

 

[Ekonk]

I have a few little nicks, but nothing serious.

Actually, I do have a bit of a welt on my right shin, I'd forgotten about that.

However, as goes mental scars, I'm pretty covered. Shootings witnessed and such.

Rrreally? Do continue, that sounds fascinating - if not gruesome.

Righty-o.

Spoiler: spoilered for length

Earlier last year I went up the North of Ireland (still part of the UK) with my friend, for a day out in Belfast (capital city of Northern Ireland). On the way back, my friend said if I wouldn't mind going up to the town of Antrim, near enough Belfast, so he could drop in on his uncle.
I said fine.
Anyway, we drove into the town, and he said that he couldn't actually remember where his uncle lived, so he was going off to look for the house, because he'd remember it when he saw it.

Anyway, I decided to go for a walk around the town, just to see what it was like. It was about half nine at night or so.

Anyway, I passed the British army base in the town, and while I was passing it a Dominos pizza van pulled up, and a couple of soldiers walked out to get the pizza. At the same time, a car drove up and the windows opened. And then suddenly, two rifles poked out and opened fire.

Gunfire is a lot louder than in the movies.

Anyway, I dived down to the ground and kept still as I could.

Two of the soldiers were killed, and 2 others wounded. The two pizza delivery men were badly wounded too.

It was horrible, the worst thing I've seen in my life. The two soldiers were totally ripped apart by the assault rifle fire, and after they had finished shooting them from the car, they stepped out and walked right up to them, and opened fire. Blood sprayed everywhere.

They got in the car and drove away. Some soldiers came out and tried to resuscitate the dead soldiers.

I slipped away without them noticing me, because I really didn't want to get questioned by them.

I got in the car, and told my friend to drive home as quick as he can. I didn't tell him what happened until we were over the border with the Irish Republic.

Anyway, the people who shot the British soldiers were the Real IRA, an offshoot of the Irish Republican Army (IRA), who want Northern Ireland to become part of Ireland again. The IRA called a ceasefire in 1998, but the Real IRA broke off and kept fighting. The next day, they killed a Northern Irish police officer.

Since then I've been suffering from extreme paranoia, panic attacks and depression.

So, fun times, fun times..

Dear Christ man, that sounds like a Class A traumatic experience. I don't really know what to say. Stupid coincidence you were there at the time. Stupid that the Real IRA is fanatic enough not to stop. I guess you're very lucky to have come out unscathed. Physically, that is. Do you still have the paranoia, panic attacks and depression? Did you ever have anyone to talk about it? That may be very important.

Shootings

"shootings"...? how many shootings have you seen?

OT: I have 2 very bad scars on my right knee, and 2 on my left arm.

Also, I have mental scars that im not going to talk about.

 

[Samurai Jim]

One on my right knee when I ripped it open on a spiked metal grate in 5th grade, one on my left shin from running into a broken hinge, and one on my thumb from when I was little when I ripped the thumb print clean off. The scars from picking mosquito bites don't count.

 

[Ben Jamin]

Scar on my chin from a piece of flying furniture, one on my arm from a nail that was sticking out of a wall, various scars on my hands and arms and a small on on my chest.

 

[Broady Brio]

I got a 3 brown lines on my forearm. Got them from a *****, when I squirted her boyfriend's crotch with a water pistol. She has Left 4 Dead witch's nails.

I've yet to scar her back now as we go differnet colleges.

That'll be all that are major.

 

[JacOak]

Let's do a check... I have three scars on my lower torso from a keyhole appendectomy, one on my neck for no adequate reason, and then there's the weird ones.
Those are the ones on my tounge. I have two near-identical ones down the left and right sides of my tounge, a long round one on the bottom of it, and a fork. I'll wait for someone to ask before I explain them.

EDIT

Well apparently as a baby I crawled like the commandos do and I did it on gravel, so my arms are covered with little white scars.

Same.

 

[BaldursBananaSoap]

I don't have one but if I did it would look like this
