[cialesxtr]

Two days ago I managed to hit myself in the face with a piece of wood (chopping firewood - a piece 'kicked back')- which has left an uncomfortable abrasion and a serious 'egg' on my forehead. The Men was very uncomfortable that night.......

Over 18 years of practicing MA and the last 18 months have been a catalogue of disasters.

Crushed big toe - right foot - lost nail..... very uncomfortable.

Shortly thereafter........... broke 2 toes in left foot. Hard to practice my Kendo and Iaido for quite a few weeks. [Still tried]

From this break - - a bony growth behind those two toes - now identified as a 'Morton's Neuroma'. Flexibility of foot seriously diminished........ ongoing degeneration.

Dislocated ring and little fingers on right hand.......... domestic work is bad for you.

Same hand...... 6 weeks later........ broken metacarpel behind ring finger.

Right hip badly bruised - torn ligaments - - more working on the house [As I said, it is bad for you......] ; alone, step ladder slipped - fell from 8 feet onto hardwood floor.

I am NOT (usually) accident-prone. This was a series of unfortunate events.

Anybody else have a list of injuries - - especially those of you who - like me - carried on training [to the best of abilities]?
