... bruises.

Never have we been so grateful to see someone show off one of their "Dancing with the Stars" injuries.
Sure beats The Woz and that fractured foot bone.

YOU GOTTA HEAR THIS: TMZ has obtained the gnarly 911 call made after Nick Palatas -- who plays Shaggy in a new "Scooby Doo" movie -- sliced his thumb open with a table saw.

Palatas -- who had been working with the saw at his house in Northridge, CA back in September -- made the frantic call himself ... telling the dispatcher he "cut it all the way down to the bone ... I must have cut a half-inch off my finger ... I'm bleeding quite badly."
When the dispatcher asks Palatas if he's breathing normally, the actor replies: "I'm trying to keep it as normal as possible, sir, it hurts like f**k!!" Palatas was eventually taken to the hospital and sewn up.
We give this call two mangled thumbs up.

"Dr. 90210" has a ton of fans ... at correctional facilities all over the country.

Yesterday in Beverly Hills, the good doc Robert Rey read us a letter from incarcerated supporter Rod -- who specifically asked for an 8x10in photo ... which he'll probably hang in his 8x10ft cell.

Thirteen months after flipping his truck and seriously messing up his hand, Shia LaBeouf finally showed off his mostly splint and tape-free paw in L.A. today.

Fortunately for the paps, the 23-year-old won't be flipping the bird -- with his left hand anyway -- as there appears to still be a bandage on his middle finger.

Falling in love is so hard on the knees -- but falling on stage, that's hard for your head, shoulder and neck.
Aerosmith frontman Steven Tyler was airlifted to the hospital last night after falling from a stage in South Dakota midway through a concert.
The whole thing went down after the soundsystem failed during "Love in an Elevator" ... and Tyler began to dance to keep the crowd entertained.
It's unclear how serious his injuries were, but Tyler was reportedly still livin' it up after going down -- joking with the physician in the helicopter.
