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. I can beat it. When I was about 13, I fell into the creek behind our house and banged my shin on a rusty metal drum in the water. It cut into my shin like a knife, and carved in a deep chunk. My friend assisted me in walking the quarter mile home, cold and wet. Went to the emergancy room and spent about 5 hours getting just over 300 stitches. The first stitches were set to come out a week later, but because the cut had the dirty creek water in it and didn't get properly cleaned, it had got infected and needed to be reclosed, another 10-15. Went on trying to heal it for about 4 months, had a big chunk of just dead skin on my shin. Really gross. Went to a plastic surgion and he decided I needed a skin graft. The surgery required 400+ in my leg and another 50+ in my hip where they took the skin from. This was about 10 years ago, and I still have a MASSIVE scar and dent in my leg, walk with a limp, and feel a lot of pain on really cold and really humid days.

I cracked my skull open a few times when I was little. If i were to be bald their would be a crap load of scars. Under my bottom lip is a scar becasue my front teeth went through my lip when I was younger. Right below my hairline is a scar from falling on cement.
So like 3 times.

Seriously, it hurt like a bitch, but it's been almost 8 years so I'm over it. I hear ya about the cold and humid days. The accident also screwed up my neck and changes in weather really kill. I'm used to the daily pain, though.

Never stitched, but I had staples in the back of my head after I fell off a car.

I had 8 on my foot when I was 7 because I stepped on some glass. Apparently it went in 2cm deep. Ironically enough the only painful part was the numbative they gave me.

That is the sickest thing I hopefully will ever read. How did it happen if you dont mind me asking. 0, well 5 stero stitches when my pen knife was jammed and I pulled hard and it flew open on my baby finger.

Lots of stitches stories, i've lost count as to how many i've actually had. When I was 2 I got stitches in my chin from falling on cement steps When I was 6 I got my finger stuck in a shopping cart wheel. Then I got staples in my head from hitting my head on a broken rusty pipe. When I was 13 I got stitches in my back from a nail head on the wall. When I was 16, I got a nice light tube across the shoulder and more recently, I got stitches in my chin while ing around in a baby swing, trying to go over the top, and fell out, hit the plastic lap bar thing.. that was cool Guess I shouldn't have snitched
