Injuries

[Murderdoll]

Hey, anyone out there who has had an injury from bowling (sprains, broken bones etc)? I'd just like to know thats all.

 

[androooo]

Yes.....sprained finger (hanging up in a insert that was too tight)
Torn Thumb...does that count?

Apart from that, just the usual things like strained muscles, like a hammy or arse muscle.

the injuries that I have don't disappear unfortunately......

I have tendinitis in my left knee and my RC joint in my right shoulder plays up and gets inflamed.

But I live with it......

In 1999 I was bowing Assoc Challenge and got my worst bowling related injury.

I got blood poisoning after splitting the back of my thumb and ended up in hospital for 4 days.

 

[Danni]

Talking about injuries. Oh my god! lol

I've had so many, I don't know where to begin.

I've torn tendons in my wrist, fingers, and hand. I have had knee problems, back, neck and shoulder injuries, not sure if it was all related to bowling but some of it was. I can't think of anymore at the moment but that just about covers it! Oh, getting a blood blister on my ring finger hurt like hell too and tearing my thumb open as well. This was a while back but there you go. That's my 2 cents worth.

 

[nay_lea]

yes graham I do remember that one, your hand was heaps swollen.

 

[Just Me]

I have shin splints wich often leave me with stress fractures in both shins! They hurt and won't go away so i have to tape my shins!!! looks funny lol and bowling doesn't help they often ache after bowling and smashing balls into them don't help either.

last year i was bowling and i'd had a few drinks and smashed a ball into the bony bit of my ankle. Hurt like hell and did for weeks! nice bruise too!!! lol

Luv Em

i honestly would not know where to start...

-- torn thumb, torn fingers.
-- soft tissue damage to the wrist
-- elbow and shoulers (ongoing thing)
-- lower back (another ongoing thing)
-- stomach (not sure if you can class it as completely bowling related-- but was caused by a female bowler striking me with the hand her wristguard was on one night [she still claims it was a "reflex action"]

)
-- both knees and big toe (left foot) (another ongoing thing)...

later...

 

[Jessy_2_Messy]

Not even gonna start....................
