Took a freak 22 foot fall, dislocated my elbow and broke my wrist. The cast and splint phase lasted over 2 months....I can finally do a pull up without feeling like my elbows going to pop out of my skin.... AND now I can predict the weather :!:

Does being eaten alive by mosquitoes count as "injury"...??? :shock: :P Being a new climber that started 6 months ago, I haven't had any major injuries yet (*knock on wood*), mostly just scrapes and blisters...

Two different injuries, both from mantling the heinous humps:
Chronic left wrist tendonitis that caused debilitating pain for almost two years, and a 6 month bout with bursitis. Broke a toe bouldering, lots of tweaks and crack gobies- flappers, torn tips and other flesh wounds, but in 28+ years, that's the worst I've had.
