Dang, that may happen to me during basketball season since I turn 15 in February.

I felt it pop so I am thinking it was only fractured at first, but at the time I thought it would help to pop it back in because I thought it was dislocated instead, but that only made it worse and I finished snapping my bone in half. Fun; got to miss the entire summer off-season of tournaments for basketball and still decided to be a loyal teammate and show up on the bench for EVERY game, all for nothing...
That sucks... you're alot like me. I usually hesitate to get an injury checked out. Luckily none of mine have been serious though.
No, what I think I might have done was turn a fracture into a complete break by thinking I was popping a dislocation back in place.
Either way, if it broke upon the hit or if I finished the break, my fifth metacarpal snapped in half.
Honestly, not trying to be the "tough guy", it didnt really hurt at all. No one in my P.E. class even believed I broke it because I was laughing so hard about it
I walked over to the teacher and said "Mr. Bustamante, I think I just broke my hand." (laughing as well) His response: a blank stare, than surpise, than WTF as he said "What's the deal man!? Go to the nurse!"
Haha. Nurse didn't think I did either. Tried to tell me it was a sprain. Dumb@sses.
Oh! I forgot when a rebound came off hard off the rim onto my pinkie, it dislocated all the way back.... And I didn't even realize, I thought it was just a jam so I finished the play with a dropstep and a layup. Than I looked at my hand and noticed my finger was bent the wrong way.
I'm lucky, because I have like a very special protective instinct or something for myself haha where I can always avoid serious injuries even though I've been playing for years I've never needed crutches, broken, or dislocated anything which is great thing. Except, I usually end up injuring someone else instead of me getting injured which I don't enjoy.

Oh, I had a more minor injury. Pulled my groin in try-outs; on top of that I was so nauseous I almost passed out since I didn't eat or drink anything that entire day, than had to run and work my ass off for almost 3 hours. :P
Well, my bum left knee is a bit sore from throwing the football with my Dad (I was running routes). My left knee always hurts for one reason or another though. :P

That stinks...
What was the surgery for?
I usually only play tennis and don't get injured often. Last year I was stung by a bee while trying to hit the ball, I think it thought I was attacking it or something. I've never broken any bones.
Grand opening was pushed back once again, we'll just say it's TBA for now. We are still waiting on the completion of some custom development that has been in the works.
