I've lost track, how many bones have I broken?

Lets see. Foot when I was 11. Then a finger in 2007 I think. Then toe in 2010. Then over the last year and a bit, foot 3 times! Now, today I can add another finger to the list. And it's extremely hard to type with it. It's my middle finger on my right hand. I have a splint on it, and can't use it to type at all because it's too bulky. I don't know why this always happens to me, it's getting to be quite annoying. I don't know how long I'll be like this, but I'll get used to it, I always do.

Oh! That sounds a lot of broken bones for one life. Had I not read your recent post( that brought me here), I would have thought that you have Osteoporosis and your bones are prone to fractures. But seems like you have a good density. I can just say that stay careful and try to avoid them. With ageing, the fractures can be really bad with more healing time and inviting more problems.

Ugh, that sounds really bad, and painful! I've "only" broken my arm before, when I was 7. By falling off of an item on a playground. I broke my arm in three places, though, and was apparently really lucky no nerves were damaged. According to the doctors it was quite terrible. Doctors also said I would never be able to use my arm as normal again (not being able to stretch it out completely for example), but I can! There's absolutely nothing wrong. This surprised the doctors. Guess I've been lucky. :)
