I broke my leg when I was 2. Since then I have not had to go to the doctor's for anything serious and rarely, rarely get sick.

Welcome to the world of hyperchondria.
It's "hypochondria". :cool:

How can a healthy male escape childhood/adolescence without a few trips to the ER, stiches, broken bones, sprains, etc.?
Did you spend your whole childhood in the basement?

One time I thought this one glass vase was plastic.

So I decide to do a... test.

10 min later, the doctor that was stitching my palms and wrists up in the ER just gave me this blank stare when I told him what happened.

Never been to the ER for anything.

Never broke, sprained, twisted anything.

Never had to go to the doctor for any sort of "concern."

The one exception may be I was born with a very small hardened bump on my head called a "wen." I didn't go to the doctor specifically for it, I just asked what it was during a checkup when I was younger. It's just a harmless build up of acid.

I am 24 years old.

Anyone else NEVER had anything wrong with them?
you're a flippin unicorn :Q

I had to have stitches once. We were playing football for PE. The weather was bad, so we played in the gymnasium. Being the genius I am, I dove for a ball that was overthrown and busted my chin open.

Your lucky?
24 isn't THAT old. I'm not suprised anything has happened.

Just wait, just wait. Something will come up sooner or later.
Until then, just take your damn vitamins and all that other good sh!t, cross your fingers, and pray :p

I only get a cold literally about once every 2 years and I've never had to go to the doctor for it.

Not kidding.

With the exception of getting my wisdom teeth removed, and some stitches that my dad gave me after I hacked my foot open once as a kid, it's the same with me.

Good to be healthy. Especially in a society that caters to hypochondriacs. "Oh no! Ask your doctor if you have this DEADLY DISEASE that kills HUNDREDS of people a year! Take this special pill to cure the recently discovered disorder that you didn't know you had! Is your chiropractor ripping you off? Quiz inside!":laugh:

I dislocated my knee once (and it twisted my kneecap around to the back of my leg). I was on crutches for 2 months, and spent another month learning to walk.

I fell down the stairs and broke my collar bone.

I broke both bones in my forearm, and turned them at a 90 degree angle.

It seems like I don't get "mild" injuries, it's all or nothing with me. :(

EDIT: I also split my head open on the top of a doorframe. That was a good 15 stitches.

I take it you're not much of an outdoorsy person? If you've never sprained either an ankle or a thumb, you ought to turn in your man card.

IMHO, if you haven't endured and recovered from SOME moderate injury or illness, you're probably not living life as fully as you could.

If you're happy, though, good for you.

The only outdoor activity I enjoy is shoveling the snow (not kidding).

I seriously enjoy it.
