The only stitches I've ever had was my wisdom teeth. Never broken a bone either. I'm 32... I hope I make it until 80 when I fall and break my hip.

Had stitches, never a cast. Plenty of other injuries, some that took longer to heal than a broken bone would have.

I've had stitches too many time to count as a kid. Very accident prone. Only had cast once. Broke ankle jumping off back of boat into water that wasnt as deep as I thought.

I'm the opposite. Plenty of casts, no stitches

managed to never break anything but fingers.

If you consider the thumb to be a finger and you break it, they'll cast you or they did me anyway.
Oh, and to answer the question, no.

I was coming here to say yes, but forgot I was in a 1/2 body cast for a long time as a baby.

That aside, through years of cheer, gymnastics, and horses I only managed to break things that couldn't be put in a cast

Casts a plenty: Knee surgery way back in the early 70's, broken arms & an ankle

Stitches: Probably from 4 years old in chin & head to open heart in 2007

Nothing since then

Never had either.

After my last rather catastrophic wreck, I am inclined to believe I am invincible.

Lots and lots of stitches. Miraculously I've had zero casts.

I'm pretty fragile. Always breaking. Handle me with care.

Stitches only once that wasn't after som type of surgery. I stuck a chisel in my knuckle that I couldn't get to stop bleeding.

I fractured my thumb once but had a brace instead of a cast.

Never had cast or stitches.


Had to use crutches for first time ever like 5 years ago. Always thought they looked fun for some reason as a kid. Boy was I wrong

Both

Besides having stitches from surgeries, I've had stitches once, 10 on my knee. Didn't hurt at all getting them, and they weren't to bad to deal with.

Had a full cast on my right arm, which was miserable, because I am right handed, and I couldn't bend my elbow for 3 weeks before switching to a half cast.

They itch, but theres nothing really you can do which is the worst, and smell awful. Especially if you can continue to play your sport like I was able to once I got my half cast. It was probably the worst thing I've ever smelled when the doctor was cutting it off.

Sprained my ankle pretty bad in high school. We had a 2 story high school. Went 1/2 a day with them before deciding I'd rather walk on my black softball of an ankle

Never had either.

I think I did have a crack in my skull when I was 2 though. I tumbled down a flight of stairs.

I've never broke anything but have had stitches and staples, both on my head.

Had a cast on my wrist up the hand and on the pinky and ring finger. I sat in the back yard and cut it off after 3 weeks. Couldn't take it anymore

Lots and lots of stitches. Largest amount was 56 on my leg.
