3.1cutlass Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 I broke my arm in 4 places on sunday. I broke my ulna, radius twice, and my scaphoid. I was jumping the jump pictured below. I do not know what happened. I remember thinking oh shit and then i was looking at the ceiling. Tomorrow at 1030 i go in for surgery. The surgery starts at noon and last 2 hours. They are putting a plate on my radius. I have to spend the night there as well. After that i will be in a cast for 6+ weeks. After that more x-rays and if my scaphoid has not healed i will get another surgery to pin it together. Here is the jump i was doing; http://i200.photobucket.com/albums/aa72/mckinney16/Rays/100_5691.jpg Here as an x-ray i got from google. The bones i broke are circled in grey. Don't mind the white circle. http://i200.photobucket.com/albums/aa72/mckinney16/xray.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tractor Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 Ouch, this is why you don't do that stuff after your 16yrs old. I'd love to give a skate park a try, but I know exactly how it will end so I just watch the kids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BradyPPC Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 I broke my left wrist in 11 places a couple of years back. Had to have a plate put in. The couldnt cast it so they put on one of those external devices with the pins drilled into the bone. Completely sucked. Columbus hand and microsurgery did the surgery on mine. I have very good use of my hand but I have never got complete feeling back into my arm or the lower part of my hand. Anyway, good luck on the recovery.

Radio Flyer1647545514 Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 Ouch. In the time that I did skateboard I feel lucky I never broke a bone. Hope all turns out well, and that you can keep riding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
