i've never really had a serious injury (pain wise), but 2 years ago when I was playing baseball in the provincials, i slid into home awkwardly and somehow pulled my back muscle. i was on a stretcher for the rest of the day and couldn't play the rest of the tournament. wasn't in that much pain, but i haven't gone more than an hour playing sports since then

what's worse, is i was the first string pitcher on my team, and the second string wasn't even there, so the last 2 days they had to use 3rd string. damn injuries !

a bone i my neck slipped out of alignemt, and was one notch away from surgury
it was the most excruciating pain i have ever felt in my life
i had a thrashed nervous system and tissue damage,
my face was stuck looking down and to the right for 8 months
i was at bedrest for two years, unable to do anything
and in physical therapy for 19 months

this happened during wrestling practice when i was in the 7th grade, beginning of season, wrestling with a guy that weighed 30 pds more than me(i was 98pds)
and when i came back my reaction timing was so slow i felt like a completely different kid on the mat
i had gone from 3rd in state(freestyle) to a fish(wreslting terminology for someone who sucks)
now after excessive training between freshman and sophemore year(currently sophemore) i can gladly say i am almost varsity status, aiming to win cadet state

last year i went 3-2
lost the round to medal

I broke my leg almost 2 years ago in football practice.. i waws on the ground for a good half hour before i could feel my leg again.. but the worst pain/injury ive ever had was the other day at work (my dads restaraunt) i was pouring soup in a to-go container and i spilled it on most of my thumb.and not realizing how hot it was i ddint do anything about it for about 5 seconds and by then it had burnt through the whole first layer of skin on probly 60% of my thumb.. it was the first time i had ever cried from pain lol.the whole top layer came completly off where it was burnt but its starting to heal pretty well. didnt goto the hospital but i probly should have.. Ive been burnt a million times by 550 degree ovens but nothing like a steam burn...lol
