Sprained ankle. First and only one I’ve ever had and it was 4.5 weeks ago at the ripe old age of 36. Was a pretty bad sprain and had me in a walking boot for several days after it happened. Still feeling it a tad but almost fully healed, taking my sweet time until it gets to 100% before I play sports again.
Calf strain. Happened this year in July, kept me away from basketball for a couple weeks and I‘ve worn a compression sleeve on that leg when playing since then. Biggest thing is stretching and hydrating thoroughly to minimize the risk of that happening again.
Broken finger. Wasn’t a huge deal since it was my ring finger on my left hand and I’m right handed, it was also the tip of my finger so the hand wasn’t too immobile. Healed in a month or so.
Sprained toe. Was hard to walk for a few days but it healed in 10 days or so.
I think that’s about it besides countless jammed fingers over the years. I’ve been very lucky with injuries overall, but they seem to be piling up the older I get.
