So recently I decided I would test my fence hopping skills, me being almost 250 pounds it didn't work out so well. So I got stitches because I cut my hand, it was only three stitches. When I was younger I thought it be fun to run into walls and that ended up with 6 or 7 stitches in my chin.
So just wondering how many times and approximately how many stitches everyone has had?

Got 4 in my chin when I got hit by a car. Better than broken bones and stuff.... didn't hurt at all (the stitches).

I've had 3 or 4 stitches in one of my eyebrows because I walked into a sharp branch on a tree, but thats about it.

I should have at least 5, but I was way to chicken to get it done so now i have a couple of scares.

25 stitches in my left thumb. I fell on glass and went almost to the bone with the cut. Worse part was getting 7 shots straight in the bone to numb my thumb up. They waited too long and the numbness was wearing off from the 3 shots so they did 4 more. I could feel the liquid going in.   |

I've had it eyebrow glued shut when I was hit in the head with a chair while wrestling.(I was 5)
Last year a window broke over my head in a freak acident causing 7 butterfly stitches in my back and 5 regular stitches in my neck.
Not fun at all considering it was summer and I had to stay in for around 2 weeks.

I don't remember the exact number but somewhere in the 250-275 range when I tore my scalp off in an accident. Little known fact, not all the internal ones disolve, some work their way out and have to be cut out instead. Really shocking when the first one pops out on your forehead.
Oh yeah, and since my scalp was mostly off, they couldn't freeze the part that was just hanging there, and I was awake throughout the whole thing. Take that, Mick Foley!

Wow, that just sounds painful. |

When I was about 4, I leaped off our couch and smashed it into a table, cutting open above my left eye and had to get stitches.
When I was in first grade, we went ice skating, well I fell and someone skated right over my forehead, so I was cut open and had to get stitches again above my left eye.
I don't remember how many it took though.

I think it was 13 that I had on the side of my head when I was 6. I just had 3 in my mouth because, since I have a large number of baby teeth still, they're removing baby teeth so they can put in implants.

Just six, on the back of my head. I did a backflip off a not very springy diving board- and came off and caught the back of my cranium going down. Lots of blood in the water.
But seriously, Sam Hain's story seems to take the cake for any stitches story I have ever heard.

I've only had five when i cut my thumb to the bone with an exacto knife. I was trying to customize a sting figure, my hand slipped and sliced my thumb real good.

Aside from right now, I think I've only ever had them once - in several places when I broke my arm when I was six.
I have some right now in my mouth, as I just had all four of my wisdom teeth removed on Monday.
