I have gross pics (NSFW duh)

Nothing too awesome.

Major ones are I have two horizontal lines about 2.5 inches long on either side of my pelvic region from a double-hernia I had as a toddler.

Have stitches scar on big left toe from 6 stitches when I was about 7 years old and playing in a home being constructed. I had shoes with holes in them and I walked into a circular saw blade that was laying on the ground propped up and it sliced my toe open.

One more minor scar on my left thumb from a neighborhood football game in which I tackled a guy apparently by his teeth.

1. Above my right eyebrow I have about a 1/2 inch scar from when I was about 5-6 yo and fell off the top bunk, my forehead hitting the corner of the dresser on the way down.

2. On my left knee a round scar about the size of a nickel from when we were playing Red Rover in 2nd grade, in the rain, on gravel, and I fell. Took 30 mins to pick out all the rocks from my knee.

3. On my left hand, the back side, 4 perfect indentions of being clawed by my sister during one of our brutal fights. She took nice chunk size skin from my hand and now I have her fingernail marks for forever!

4. From the middle of my breasts (no, no pictures, ldo) to my belly button when I was cut all the way open for gastric bypass surgery. This was 7 years ago when they were first starting lapro and I had the surgery too early.

I have a scar that runs parrallel to my jaw on my uppper neck. It's from a surgery I had when I was 5 to remove an infect in my neck, but it's never gone away. In fact it's actually grown as I've gotten older. Now it's a few inches long and looks like someone sliced open my jugular.
Every once in a while people will be like "holy crap dude. I just noticed your scar! What's it from"
Without smiling I say "shark attack" then "just kidding...knife fight" It's fun when they actually believe me.

I think I'm going to start telling girls I have a scar on my penis from a bj gone wrong. It's genius imo

I have the graphite in my hand too. Standing behind a girl waiting to sharpen my pencil in 2nd grade and she turned around and accidentally stabbed me. Right between the knuckle on my left ring finger, palm side. I remember running to the nurse with the pencil sticking out of my hand. Still visible after almost 30yrs.

Tiny one on my upper right inner arm from a bb. Having a bb gun battle in the woods(2pump limit) then after we were done I shot a full strength shot by my friends foot as a joke. He fired back and hit me in the arm, right in the artery, blood was just pumpimg out of me. Ran home and went to the hospital cursing him out the whole time. There were actually a few dots on the ceiling of my house.

A 1" scar on my left hand between index/thumb. Drunk playing with a friends boning knife. Threw it to stick it in the floor but it didn't stick. It oddly ricocheted back and shot right by me slicing me in the process. Sliced the ligament clean through. That took like two small operations to fix.

Worst one. About 2 inches now, above my left eye. When I was 6 I was riding my bike to a local park. Get off to walk across a bridge. There are a bunch of teenagers on the other side and a small small model dragster on the ground on my side. As I approach all the teenagers are yelling across to me to check out the car. I keep walking closer and the thing explodes, they had put an m-80 in it. Brilliant. A piece of the car hit me. Ended up getting 45 or 50 stitches.

Some guy cut me off in the left lane and, even though I slammed on the brakes, I hit him going real fast. This was 25 years ago when most ppl (including me) ignored the seat belts. I knocked the steering wheel right off and punched out the windshield with my forehead. When the ambulance guy told me to take my hand away from my forehead I refused because I thought my brains would spill out. There was blood everywhere. I was still picking glass out a month later even though they thought they got it all at the hospital. Those were pretty good scars but I have to look for them closely now since they've faded over the years.

Interesting thread.

I have a small bald spot on top of my head (thankfully covered by the rest of my hair) where my sister hit me with a large ornamental dog when I was very young.
A 1 inch scar above my right eyebrow from headbutting concrete in a playground, tried to jump off something and slipped.
A 2 inch scar running down face next to right eye when a ladder fell on me.
A scar on my middle finger due to the tip being severed when I trapped it in a door.
A scar on another finger from knife cut.
I also can't grow a full beard as I badly scraped my lower jaw on the right side of my face falling off a bike, no scar though!

All of the scars are quite faint now, can only really see them under direct light.

Oh and one more, a small scar on my lower lip after i bit through it in a fight. Looks like a freckle now though.

Probably my most interesting and noticeable scar. Got this from a convoy live fire exercise at Fort Benning. Came from the hot brass of a 5.56 round from the Soldier next to me. I had my collar up and everything but it just managed to hit me just right and then slide down my body until it came to rest under my armpit.





BTW: A similar thread that has more pictures

[NT!]

I have a circular scar, around 3/4" in diameter, on my thigh that looks like a gunshot wound. It's actually from a spider bite (I guess a brown recluse but I never found it) that got viciously infected, I ended up with an abscess the size of a tennis ball. Watching a nurse lance that thing and have it splatter on her face was pretty gnarly.

I have a small scar on the front of my shoulder from getting slashed with a chef's knife. I've told the story here before - angry boyfriend breaks into my house to kill me, we fight, etc. I had a bad wound on inside of my left hand, but it didn't leave a scar.
