Biggest pain you've ever felt?

[JoesshittyOs]

Testicular torsion. Even the name makes it sound painful.

I was making out with a girl for a good 30 minutes, all the while I was in an uncomfortable position on the couch. The... "arousal", mixed with jeans and the weird way I was laying on the couch with her ended up taking it's toll on my goods. I managed to drive home, somehow walked out of my car and told my mom something was wrong, which wasn't a pleasant conversation.

Seriously, it's legitimately hard to type this. Luckily enough it wasn't permanently damaged, so I ended up sitting in the bath tub for a few hours and managed to pull myself to bed and passed out from all the Excedrin I took.

A spinal tap is the most intense pain I've felt. I've had two, and I passed out during both despite a huge application of painkillers both times. Still, the pain didn't linger, unlike with really bad injuries... which brings me to the time a man applied a 9mm slug to my person using an old russian handgun. What it lacked in intensity was made up for in aching during recovery. So I guess overall that was worse... but for sheer intensity, nothing beats a needle straight into your spinal cord.

Passing a kidney stone. Like pissing liquid fire razor blades.

This about a million times over. Pissing out my first kidney stone was the most painful thing ever. The second and hopefully last one was a little bit better due to the home remedy I tried out which was one cup of lemon juice cut with one cup of water. The extra acid helped dissolve the mostly calcium stone until it just slipped out. Now I make sure to drink plenty of fluids every day to keep this from happening again.

I went on holiday down to the coast when I was younger. I noticed a small blue-green caterpillar on my arm, flicking the small creature off of my arm, we continued on to the beach. Little did I know it had just emerged from my shirt and slowly my back gets itchy, an more itchy and OH MY GOD ARHHG! unbearable itch all over my back, I ended up ripping my shirt over my head and sprinting into the water in the hopes it may help, thank god it did, but that night I was sunburnt so my hippyesque Aunt proscribes me some aloe vera (usually a good idea), however whatever is in aloe vera combined with my caterpillar "bite" when down like a paper factory filled with petrol, oh god it burned, all night, all day for the next two days, a mix of bug poison and sunburn... It was horrible.

I've always been curious about a gunshot wound. If you don't mind, where were you shot and what did it feel like?

And why were you shot?

Definitely the period pains I used to get when I was younger. It felt like someone had grabbed my stomach and was twisting it as hard as they could and then stretching it out as far as it could go. A close second was the ache in my teeth the day after I got braces on. I walked around with my mouth half open for three days because if I knocked my teeth against each other I felt like they were being ripped out.

I've been four car accidents, and all but one were my squishy human body meeting the hard metal of the cars. The worse pain though is when a car nailed me in the side as I tried to cross a busy street. I bounced off, laid down on the ground stunned until the police officer trying to direct traffic around me told me that I just couldn't lay in the street where I was so he picked me up and tried to put me on my semi feet, then he tried to drag me out of the road, unfortunately my left leg went the wrong way. I've never been so happy for shock to set in as the cop draped me over a parked car and told me just wait a few more minutes for the ambulance to come.

Somehow the vertebrae in my neck got out of alignment and ended pinching the nerves in my spinal column, causing rather excruciating pain. The worst part, though, was that if I moved at all, even just a slight shift, the pain would spike up to being far worse, so I spent a couple of days doing my best to not move a muscle or I'd end up in agony. Protip: Staying absolutely still while in agony is not very easy.

I stood on a piece of Lego once...

 

[Chiefmon]

Paper cut across the pupil. Someone swung a piece of paper in front of me and it neatly sliced through my cornea.I didn't need any serious medical treatment and it healed, but the pain...

Shattered my humerus(upper arm bone)in 8 pieces while snowboarding, fell down a crevasse, and hung upsidedown by my board until i was found 2 hours later.(insert 127 hours movie jokes here) on the trip down the mt to the hospital the paramedics couldn't find a vein to administer morphine so they just stuck it in my muscles.(which does absolutly nothing)all of this i could deal with, until two hefty nurses yanked my arm around while doing x-rays, thats when i cried like a baby. Then they gave me a little something called Dilaudid....which i highly reccomend.

After surgery, 16 screws and a hockey stick shaped bar hold my arm together.

Mass Effect 3's ending.

Seriously though, it was when the painkiller wore off after getting my wisdom teeth removed.

And why were you shot?

I was a target in a uniform, for the why. Upper left arm for the where (unfortunate, as my torso was very much armored against such a shot... but fortunate that it wasn't my face)... and at first it felt rather similar to being punched, not even terribly hard. More shock than pain with a slight numbness to it. Took a second for the pain to kick in, but I hardly noticed it over the adrenaline rush. It wasn't until after the bullet was out and the painkillers wore off that night that the pain was really bad. When it did get bad, it felt rather how I imagine stepping on a nail would be if your foot were already one giant bruise.

Bloody pulling my back on multiple occasions. It's just that initial moment when it goes that it hurts. "About to paint the last section of wall in a room" *Back goes* D=

 

[gusenborge]

Most pain i was in was when a part of my intenstines got messed up and they were forced to operate, however they did this one day after it had ruptured.
Which meant i spent a night at home puking my guts out and since we werent sure what it was i didnt get to ride with an ambulance but instead with a hospital transporter which had to make a stop at a small house which added about 2 miles extra to our trip, my mother was at the point of throwing the driver out.

So once i got at the hospital i got some morphin and from there everything is kinda muddy, although i was conscious when i entered the operating room which kinda looked like a morgue which freaked me out.


Only good part of it was that my daddy smuggled in candy into the hospital for me, best candy ever!

I had an accident with a heavy ATV(500cc engine). It tipped over and I was crushed between it and the ground. I took all the impact with my right shoulder. Bone which goes from neck to shoulder got misplaced so it had to be put in place with HUGE metal bar which was drilled deep in to it from the tip of my shoulder. First night at the hospital wasnt that bad with all the painkillers but the first night at home... Weak painkillers didnt do a thing... I felt like my shoulder was on fire inside. And it lasted the whole night.

 

[Sean Hollyman]

When i broke my arm (i fell off my bike), both of the bones in my left arm were snapped right in half. I never cried.... it hurt too much to cry.

Like literally snapped in half? How the hell do you fix that?

 

[Gordon_4_v1legacy]

I've got a pinched nerve (currently dulled by some bitching meds) and its been the worst pain I've ever felt personally......aside from the point of impact when I got hit by a car.

Paper cut across the pupil. Someone swung a piece of paper in front of me and it neatly sliced through my cornea.I didn't need any serious medical treatment and it healed, but the pain...

The though of that is actually making me feel really queasy now.

My contact once dried out in my eye. When I went to take it out it tore my iris.

Picture putting rubbing alcohol in your eye, continuously.
