Hey Pandas, What Is The Weirdest Scar You Have And How Did You Get It? (Closed)

I have a nickel-sized scar with an X in the middle (I named it Ethel) on my leg. Ethel used to be a cyst, but then I nicked it shaving, it got infected, became a boil about twice the size of the original cyst, then had to be lanced by my great-grandparents' doctor while I was visiting them for Thanksgiving (he also tried to remove the cyst but didn't quite get all of it, so Ethel now perpetually looks kinda swollen). The highlight of that adventure was having to make stops on the 14-hour drive home to change the padding in the hole in my leg.

I have a crooked pinky because I fell out of a tree and degloved it.

When I was younger, I was running around and my dog got in the way. I fell over her and scrapped my arm. It wasn't that bad but if you look closely I have a scar from it. (looking at all the other stories on here this isn't really that bad)

My husband has a scar across his palm. He cut himself with a toaster. It required several stitches.

Another time he was grafting a tree and instead of the branch, cut his fingertip in half vertically. Nail and all. I was very late in a pregnancy and had to drive HIM in a hurry to the same hospital we’d give birth in a couple of weeks later.

I have a small oval shaped scar on my left wrist from getting burned by peanut butter. I was taking peanut butter bread out of the oven (I was 16 when this happened btw) and I accidentally touched my wrist against the peanut butter. It burned and hurt really bad, but I just stood there, with a blank look on my face. My mom, who was standing there the whole time, grabbed my hand and shoved it into the sink, and ran my wrist under cold water.

I also have a 2 inch long scar on my leg that looks like a long finger. A very heavy log ( the log was 7 ft long I think) fell on my leg and bounced off. I'm lucky it didn't do any other damage. I got away with a very bloody scrape and lots of pain.

I have a scar on one of my fingers from when my friend cut me with her fingernail.

Tear drop burn scar on my left forearm from 2009. My brother and I were making breakfast at the stove. He dropped frozen bacon on a pan with too much oil as I reached for something. I also have a dark dot in the middle of my forehead. My mom thought I had a pimple and tried to pop it. I was four. It was the start of chicken pox.

Scar on my bottom lip…been there forever and idk what happened

1/4” scar right between my eyes on the bridge of my nose. My mom accidentally shut my head in the door of our vw bug when I was 4. I was crawling behind her seat to get in the back but she thought I was already in. Thanks Mom. Love you anyway.

I have matching scars on the backs of my hands from my thumbs to my wrists, because in year 6, I was climbing a tree at school, and I didn't notice I'd gotten scratched by the branches until I was doing piano lessons and there was blood on the keys so yeah.

On the back of my ankle. When I was nine i went to my friends garage sale and they were selling an automatic exercise bike and i tried to use it and it crushed my foot and broke my ankle.
that was not a fun day
i also have a scar right under my both my nostrils from when i fell on my face on concrete and broke my nose and needed stitches

I have 5 stitches in my chin from a girl who bit my chin in 6th grade while I was watching her throw peanuts in the air and catch them in her mouth. Wow, facial cuts really bleed!

I have a scar on both of my knees. When I was about 6 I was leaning on the car door and somebody opened it. I reacted quickly but not enough and both of my knee caps got ripped up. Deos that count as weird?

I have a HUGE scar on my knee because I ran into a fence in 4TH GRADE. It's still there to this day.

I have an S shaped scar on my heel from stepping on a fishhook when I was 12. It ripped through my foot from my heel to the arch, and left sand and gravel in the cut. It also caused me to fall over from the pain, hit my head on a boulder (and subsequently get a concussion), sprain my wrist trying to keep myself from falling, almost break my nose, and I ended up in the ER being checked for tetanus (luckily I didn't have it). They ended up having to sit there with tweezers picking out the tiny pieces of gravel that were embedded in it, while I sat there sobbing. Be careful with your fishhooks please fisherpeople, otherwise someone else might end up with this happening to them too.

V shaped scar on my forehead from a car accident, got called voldemort for years...

Too many scars to count, but my most useful scar growing up was the one I got in my right hand. I was moving big rocks on my uncle's farm to redirect the creek drop in on my hand where you could see the ligaments. I always knew my left from right easily (without making the L.) Also have a L shaped scar on my left thumb from wiping a counter at work and cutting it on a lid. Would have worked the same way if I didn't already know my left and right.

I have a scar down through my top lip. I fell playing tag when I was 6 or 7 and my bottom teeth went through almost to my nose. Now 30 years later there's still a small slash of skin color where my lip pigment never came back.

I have a scar on my finger from trying to shoot a splintered bow and arrow... the splintered part flew into my hand!😆It's kinda funny cuz I was trying to see how many times I could shoot the arrow before it broke! Talk about idiot kids.
