    I'm talking physical, but emotional is also accepted.

    Mine was "just" facial cleansing.

    I know it sounds trivial but I swear to god it was extremely painful.

    There is no pain comparable to stepping on a plug. I've considered throwing out all appliances to prevent it ever happening again!

    A knee to the balls is no picnic.

    Childbirth.












    I had to listen to her moan, scream and go on and on about it...

    Kidney stone. Was so bad that I started to question was it pain at all, was delirious.

    Was training for a tag rugby match one evening and one of the girls miskicked the ball... I tried not to drop to the ground, stayed standing and tried to pretend I hadn’t just taken a rugby ball into the goolies with a fair degree of force behind it, that she’d missed me by inches. The humiliation was almost as painful - “I’m fine, I’m fine, close one”... :pac:

    Being trodden on by a horse as a child ranks well up there, I remember the pain at the time, can’t really remember much else!

    Had minor surgery on my eyelid last year. Had to get 2 injections into my eyelid / eyeball beforehand.

    I roared in pain!

    Dry socket after a tooth extraction . OMG it was like an electric drill into my jaw

    Waiting for an operation to put my pelvis back together. I spent four days being rolled every so often to prevent bed sores and could feel the broken pieces of my pelvis moving and scraping off each other. Even full of morphine it was agony.

    That intense pain when you twinge your neck is probably the sorest but it's so short lived.

    Lumbar puncture headache was up there. If cracking open my skull would have relieved it, if probably have done it.

    Damaged nerve and leg unable to straighten after 7 days in hospital bed.

    I was straightened out for the MRI machine by 4 nurses and the pain was so bad I crapped myself and nearly passed out.

    I'd have a high pain tolerance but that was something else.

    Getting the top of my fingers caught in a motor, only missing the top of 1 of them thankfully but the pain is something I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 986 ✭✭✭Prominent_Dawg


    Tooth nerve pain, I never knew a human could endure such pain


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,246 ✭✭✭✭Dyr


    Torn ACL

    Kidney stones about forty years ago.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,392 ✭✭✭✭Timmaay


    Broke my arm and it was twisted around the wrong way, doctors gave me morphine but I had an allergic reaction to it, so they had to set the bone back and put a cast on it without any painkillers, that totally redefined pain for me, I "blacked out" about 30sec onto it, except I could only see all white instead of black ha.

    Was back on the bike 9 or 10weeks later thankfully also ha.

    Had an internal abscess burst and erupted through the skin ripping open an old surgical wound from the inside outside lots of blood lots of pain

    Falling off a badly placed ladder. I only feel about 2 feet but because the ladder moved away from the wall my legs slipped through the rungs and I skinned about a foot up the front of each shin. Pain was so bad I just crawled to a comfortable spot and laid there for an hour.

    SPD/PGP.
    Sitting down hurts, standing hurts, lying down hurts. Every single movement feels like your pelvis/hips are about to snap leading to the necessity of a walking stick/crutches just to be able to walk.

    Second to that was a bad lung infection. Couldn’t even sleep with the pain.

    A cut across the surface of my eye with a hard plastic edge.i could see a line down my pupil and fluid came out of it.i never ever felt pain as intense or a feeling so uncomfortable.

    Wisdom tooth extraction was tough also.

    Agony.
