1. “What did you break?”
GiphyThe #1 question. People's curiosity always gets the best of them, but I'd rather they start guessing about which bone is broken rather than just asking straight up. The cast might be a helpful guide.
2. “Did you know immediately?”
GiphyEach person is different, but it's usually fairly obvious to tell when something is broken. It does kind of swell and starts to bruise.
3. “How did you break it?”
GiphyAlright, this one I understand because sometimes there's a really cool story behind it.
5. “What’s it like?”
GiphyIt's annoying and inconvenient if you really want to know. Not to mention incredibly itchy, so sometimes things get stuck.
6. “Have you ever broken a bone before?”
GiphyI hate this question the most. Like, why does it matter if I've broken something before? That has nothing to do with this current injury.
7. “When did you do it?”
GiphyHonestly, this one is just a leading question, and goes straight into the next question.
12. “What’s the worst part about it?”
GiphyI never know how to answer this one. Do you mean what's the worst part of the injury or whats the worst part of having a cast? Please clarify because there are two different answers here.
13. *for arm casts only* “Are you left or right handed?”
GiphyAlright, valid question. You're gauging to see how inconvenient this injury actually is.
