Biggest pain you've ever felt? Pages PREV 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 NEXT | |
My dentist was giving me the.. I forgot the name, the shot that numbs pain, needle of painkillers, whatever. But as she was giving me the shot she sneezed, breaking the needle in half and ripping up my mouth and tongue.. Ow. D: | |
Broke my foot, 4th and 5th metatarsals. A several hundred pound (our later estimate put it at at LEAST 350 pound) slab of concrete landed directly on my foot from about 10 feet up. Broke the slab in half, hehe. Standard immense pain, though my upper body ended up going pretty much numb within 10 minutes. I suppose I lucked out, because the slab fell after jumping up and grabbing the top of the wall, and if I hadn't had lightning reflexes and kicked off of the wall, that slab would have landed right on my head. | |
I got kicked in the face while sparring at my kung-fu class which broke my nose.Wasn't actually that bad after wards but the instant it happened the pain literally floored me.On the bright side when people hit my nose now it doesn't hurt half as much. | |
Third degree acid burns over 23% of my body. That was absolutely no fun at all, and no medical insurance meant I had to deal with it using only my buddy's army medical training. And alcohol. Lots of that. It was almost six months ago and my arms and chest have still not fully healed. | |
I've got no idea what caused it, but I was once in such pain that I couldn't physically move. In fact, it started whilst I was stood up, so I ended up falling over in the bathroom and knocking myself out on the tiles because I couldn't even move to catch myself. A couple of hours later it stopped, and no one knows why. How marvelous. | |
Damn, I've had that come close to happening from firing high-caliber weapons without ear protection, it's no fun at all :( How do they treat that? | |
Well, I think I have to go with kidney stone. I woke up at 6am with what I thought was a cramp in my back. It hurt so much I couldn't get out of bed. I tried straighten out on my back to make it feel better cause that usually helps when I get back pains. It just kept hurting like hell. I was unable to breathe, it hurt so much I wanted to throw up, but then again it hurt so much I couldn't. It came and went in waves of pain. I only had a small kidney stone, I am really grateful I didn't have a big one. | |
I accidentally deleted my pr0n folder a few years ago.. The restoration process is still ongoing, slowly and sticky. | |
Just the past few days actually I had to cope with an ingrown toenail. Those were dark days, the slightest tap was excruciatingly painful. And my method of treating it even more so... | |
Here's an interesting thread. I have this, and it's recurring. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diverticulosis I was actually sent to this hospital for this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diverticulitis which was a worse version of the aforementioned. Shit sucked, man. | |
OK heres mine, gonna spoiler for those squeamish Also being hit over the head with a bat when I was 8 by another kid, leaving a scar is up there as well. | |
Well, I had my tonsils removed along with some puss that had formed in the back of my throat, and I coughed at few times. I thought I was going to die. And there was the time I had cotton removed from my nose after another surgery (I had about a half of my nose blocked inside). I don't cry in pain, but when I felt a 30cm long (almost a foot-long) of that weird hospital cotton ripped out of my nose, my eyes acted on reflex and shed a LOT of tears. The guy who had his nose cleaned after me also came back crying and laughing at us, both grown men, crying after a minor procedure. Oh, and I still feel pain after shoulder surgery. September, October, November, December... and until May, still counting. It was worst right after surgery, before I started taking strong painkillers, and during the time I was off the painkillers but had to wait few hours before taking another pill. Though, the pain I felt when I ripped a part of my tendon off my shoulder bone was probably worse... HMM, SO MANY CHOICES, SO LITTLE TIME. | |
Was shot in my arm during a hunting trip when I was 16. That was intense but didn't really hurt right there and then but it was so gruesome looking that I passed out. Had a nail go right through my foot Broke my ankle but the cast hurt more than anything. And getting hit in the forehead by a baseball bat. | |
I got pain pills and weekly check ups for signs of infection. They told me if it had been worse there was the option for surgical repair. I can't speak for yours though, the largest caliber I've fired is .270 Winchester. | |
When i fell on my ass from 2,5 meters up. The fall made my bottom 3 vertibrea slam into eachother. The following 2 weeks sucked so bad. | |
Okay well, as I'm sure many of you know, men have a pair of these things known as 'testicles'. These are connected to the body by a pair of cords (I forgot the medical term). In a perfect storm of nasty circumstances, often brought about by an odd sleeping position or shifting about in awkward ways while asleep (lying face down, moving legs around, etc.), these two cords can tie themselves into a knot. Think of a mixture of the worst food poisoning you've ever had mixed with the sensation that your balls are inflating like balloons and being ripped off. Had to have surgery to have the 'knot' undone. | |
My friend and I were playing lightning at a birthday party. He shot and missed so I kicked his ball across the court, he retaliated by pushing me into a wall. I broke my wrist. Worst pain I've ever had. We were snowed in too (Stupid Northern Minnesota) so I wasn't able to see a doctor almost two whole days later. | |
Damn. What's the story behind the baseball bat? | |
I used to have migraines and have cracked my wrist, but the most powerful pain I have ever had was when I was quite young, around 10 I think. My family and I were at the beach, and I got stung by a blue-bottle in the water. I screamed so loud my parents a good 50 meters up the relatively crowded beach heard me loud and clear. I was given a chocolate, a peppermint crisp, but I could only eat the thing about 30 minutes after I was out the water. The bitch had wrapped those blue tentacles all the way around my leg (twice), under my knee and some of it on the under-side of my thigh. There was a piece that got stuck on my toe, but by the time I stopped screaming from the pain in my leg I forgot it was there, I only noticed because I saw that there was another one of those awful burn-marks where the life-guard had peeled blue-death off my foot. I fucking hate blue-bottles. | |
My cousin and I were playing catch with the dog and we wanted the ball to go really far, so we decided to hit it with the baseball bat. All was going well but at one point I was next to my cousin talking and he must not have heard me and he took another swing and boom, lights out. I woke up with gash on my forehead that bled like crazy. I had one nasty headache for the rest of the day and for the rest of the week my head was just sore. Good thing it was a wood bad and not metal. | |
Not as bad as the other stuff, here, definetely, but I have to agree, those are debilitating for the short period they last, I need to stop everything i'm doing and writhe in pain for a while. Until it fixes itself after about 12 seconds. The worst pain I can remember had me on Caolin and Morphine solution, which tasted great, by the way, like chalky aniseed. EDIT: Speaking of pain, I've seen a lot of people talking about how they cry or don't cry in pain. I murmur softly to myself. Creepy, right? But in the case of my faecal impaction, since the pain is a lengthy, crippling stomach cramp, I hunch over making noises I can only describe as like when you stretch. | |
My eardrum didn't actually burst, it just came close a couple times from repeatedly shooting a 7.62x54R in an enclosed space. I was partially deaf for about three days. | |
A German Shepherd bit my hand a couple years ago. That wasn't very fun lol. | |
I sprained both my knees while skiing once when I was 14. I couldn't even stand, people had to carry me around before I was given some crutches, and I hopped on them (and had my knees bandaged) for 3 months after. They're still not the same, 9 years later. I also get migraines on a regular basis when I'm stressed. Imagine having the pain of a million needles stuck into your brain every time you make even the smallest motion. I end up lying completely still in a dark room, not moving a muscle, trying to sleep to escape it, all while the pain's enough to make me cry. Migraines suck. EDIT: Ooh, last spring I had an ear infection that rendered me deaf on my left ear for 3 weeks. The first week was hell, the pain was vile, and eventually my eardrum ruptured. Worst. Pain. Ever. | |
I had this Infection of my inner Ear and my Jaw. I didn't like it. | |
Okay, this interests me, how did this happen? Basic training in the military. You are supposed to have you mask on, and you chem-suit (which also is your raincoat). I think some think went wrong cause the concentration was much much to high, and of course I got a mask with a broken filter. I wasn't "trapped" in the room, I just couldn't find my way out because of the gas which was thick you only could see 2 inches in front of you. The the gas made me tear up and I sort of panicked, until the LT came an pulled me out. It's amazing you can get lost in a room that is about 10 square meters :D captca: fishy smell. Thought it was sort of appropriate | |
Quite a few contenders for most pain I have been in, though two experiences do stick out, First was when I was in nursery aged about four or five when a fellow child threw a solid wooden block at my head which split open. That was not painful part, the painful part was at the hospital where they glued or stitched my head together without pain relief, though I'm not sure of the details as I was too busy screaming my lungs out in pain to notice exactly what they where doing... <.< >.> hey lighten up I was just a kid back then! My second experience of most crippling pain needs some background info as it is quite a long story. I used to work for a building firm when I first left school, mainly fitting windows at the time. One day I was working a site of a retirement replacing old windows when I delivery for the glass panes arrived. It started off normally unloading the glass from the lorry until of the fellas right before picks up a big pane of glass and I then took one step closer to the van. However this turned out to be a rather silly thing to do in hindsight as the co-worker instead of going towards where we had been storing the glass, decides to turn back on himself and doing so hit me in the torso with the pane of glass. It was a weird sensation, it actually felt being hit with a bat and actually thought, though in some pain I thought was alright. That was until another co-worker asked "it didn't go through your shirt did it?" and which I was like "my shirt?". That was when I noticed the hole in my shirt where underneath I found another hole in my torso with blood pouring out. Fast forward to the hospital where I had been dump like an od'ing hooker, (I'm not kidding they literally drove me to the hospital and left me there so they could get back to the job, leaving me with no way to get home or way of contacting anyone as my phone had crapped out) I was eventually seen to my a doctor (and here is where the pain begins). The doctor explained to me that there might be small shards of glass in the wound so he would check to be sure. He proceeded to dig around inside the wound with a pair of cold tweezers, without giving me any pain killers before gave up looking and sent me to radiology for them to check >_<. However unlike my first example I bared the pain in a proper manly way and just thought about all the nasty things I'm going to do to this sadistic doctor once he's patched me up. I did get eventually get some pain killers...3 hours after being admitted and 10 minutes before being discharged (damn NHS!). What followed was two weeks of horrible pain as my entire torso ached and I literally could not sit up myself or use any muscles in my torso because of the pain. I had to get out of bed my sliding myself out being careful not to bend in anyway. All in all it wasn't the most pleasant of 2 weeks and you know what the worst thing was? That job I was working on...it was the last week there before I left to go to college -_-
Though this is a close runner up mind. | |
I know it's not the worst, but it's the only thing that I can remember being really painful due to how rarely I have a really painful injury. My little brother has had some pretty bad pains over the years, but I can't feel that. | |
First point of contention. Penicillin is an antibotic, not a painkiller. OT: Worst pain I've ever felt? It certainly wasn't the infected, ingrown tonail I've had for a couple weeks. Judging by the first couple of posts, maybe I should check for nerve-damage in my feet. Purely physical pain, I think I'm gonna have to go with the time when I was about 6, when my sister slammed the sliding van door on my head. That hurt like hell, I couldn't even stand for hours. Either that or a good hard shot to the nuts, shorter length but much worse. | |
When I was younger I had otitis media in my right ear which is when the middle ear becomes infected and causes massive swelling behind the ear drum, I thought my ear was going to explode. I was only 8 at the time and it's still the most pain I have ever been in, although I'm pretty sure that the hangovers I have on New Year's Day are a close second. | |
(I should go back and edit that) I've been over this with another user. 1. The painkiller thing was just a mistake, I wrote down what came to mind and didn't think much on it. 2. Don't like the use of those inverted commas boy, one might take that as a... hostile way of talking... >.> I don't know why it hurt, I seem to remember them saying it did that for most people. 3. After the operation 4. Now you are just being annoying. I'm not even going to bother as you are clearly just being picky for the sake of it. | |
Hmm, probably when I went to the hospital for an u.v. infusion and the nurse was (obviously) having a bad day. She hit a nerve with the needle... HOLY $#&@ THAT HURT!! I can't watch the amputation part of 127 hours after that *shudder* | |
I once sprained my toe. It hurt a bit. I've been really fortunate in my life to never get seriously injured or ever endure something all that painful. It's not that I live a sheltered life though, I do plenty of dangerous things for thrills but I am just really lucky I guess (or just good at what I do). | |
An ear infection I had as a child. I remember lying on my side crying for hours. Every time I moved my head, the pain went from just murderous-throbbing straight up to white-lances-of-agony. That is the longest I have ever been off school/work due to illness. Seven days in bed, four of which were utter hell. Stupid ear. As an aside, it does not comfort me that, whenever I mention this incident to my mother, she just smiles and says, "Wait until you try giving birth. That's pain!" | |

Appendicitis.
Feels like... someone taking a serrated tree saw to the crease between your thigh and pelvis, every single time you try to move.
Every.
Damn.
Time.
The soreness after the surgery doesn't even compare.
