Not personally but a number of years ago my brother was messing around hitting a tennis ball in the air and slipped and landed palm down and fractured his arm. Didn't help that he was 16 stones either.

I did something to my thumb at indoor cricket taking a catch, as it's the side of my thumb it could be tendons or ligaments but can't bend it fully since. I also broke my finger playing with a balloon (don't ask) last year and although it still works as before, sometimes there can be a really dull ache and it's slightly misshapen compared to before.

Broken all fingers bar left thumb over the years just used to it now as long as you set it right after the break it should be fine

I broke/fractured my finger playing football blasted the ball it and know like the bone in one finger is a lot bigger and different shaped that before.
Never went hospital or anything, just left it, it hurt for a couple of weeks

Being a keeper this is all to regular! I don't bother going to the hospital any more all they say is buddy strap it and don't play for six weeks, my response usually involves exchanging weeks for days so i can play next weekend!
