Jake:
Happy days
I have a double knee and rock shins from years of BMXing.
Park,ramp and street sessions will do that to the body
I took up the far safer sport of skate boarding and now have dodgy ankles and wrists
I love proper sports
:D
lee celtic:
I was in a bunny hop comp using my Huffy pro 5 , I did a jump 3 tyres high and 4 long at speed and as I landed the top bar on the handle bars and the one peice crank snapped and I hit the seat hard... :(
walking like John Wayne for a week :oops: :oops:
gave up skateboards after grinding my chin down and chipping my teeth doing car jumps (board goes under you go over) :oops: :oops:
Then I started playing American Football for Oldham Pheonics , dislocated right shoulder , cracked ribs ,Knackered knees... :oops: :oops:
I then took up Darts ....I love proper sports ;)
Sider:
Between the ribs and the sternum and vertebrae, there's what in Spanish is called a semi-mobile joint (same as between the bones in your skull), dunno what the English witch doctors call them. If you heard a crunchy/poppy noise, either you have fractured a rib, or luxated one of those joints.
Best course of action is to head straight to the vets, have your thorax X-rayed, and let them perform their voodo on you. It is quite easy for a broken rib to bruise your pleura (or worse, pierce it) and that could cause no end of respiratory problems.
Or in layman's terms: HEAD FOR A&E, YOU KNUCLEHEAD!!!!! :lol: :lol:
topless matt:
I ride downhill and took a nasty spill in kent, fell from 12 feet up onto a solid quarry floor.
Had a chest and back protector on for once along with the rest of my armour and managed to bruise my collar bone and crack 3 ribs......... still drove home 70 miles in the 90 lol
If it hurts when you breathe and laugh, it will be a bust rib, just tape it up or strap it and leave it, it is all that the hospital will do.
Get better soon mate

Thats what you should do as you cant tell if any internal damage has been done and if so better to find it now and get it sorted.
Take a book as it could be a long wait, but better safe than sorry
