Worst pain you've experienced

Had a lipoma on my back in my twenties which wasn't a problem. Benign and painless. Until it got infected then it was pretty inconvenient, painful even when rubbing against clothing. So I went to a doctor in a Dutch backwater where I was working who thought the best way to remove it was to use a cooling spray and then cut the top off and squeeze the infected fatty puss out. Fuck me, that was painful. The spray didn't work, of course, and it was like having a bullet removed without any anaesthetic (I imagine).

Still, the girls were impressed when I told them the resulting hole in my back was a bullet hole. "Dined out" on that for a good while.

We shall call this story Djemba Djemba - so good it was told twice :)

Been run over and broke my leg in two places. Cracked my ribs, twice. Been smashed full in the face with a baseball bat. Fell off a ladder and broke my arm. Had what they used to call a slipped disc and could barely move for over a week.

But all that was like a tickling party compared to this one time when I got earache. Was seriously contemplating which was the best way to kill myself to make it go away.

I wholeheartedly agree. Only thing that has pushed an ear infection close for me was an abscessed tooth. Both utterly miserable and agonising.
 
I once fractured my skull and it was cracked open. However, the pain of the injection into my skull far outweighed the pain of the actual incident that caused the injury.
The nurse said if I could feel them stitching my head together to tell her and they would give me another injection. I could feel it immediately but kept quiet.
 
Pulmonary embolism which caused pulmonary infarction which caused heart strain because I didn’t go to the hospital for three days thinking I only had a bad case of Covid or something and it would pass with a bit of bed rest.

Every single breath I took for three days was like someone inside me trying to stab their way out of my from the inside with multiple knives.
 
I had steroid injections in each of my finger nails. Short but excruciatingly painful. I had to laugh though when I was introduced to the physician carrying out the procedure - Dr Yell
 
My toes are curling reading some of these stories. All I can do is join up with the back painers. Mine was so bad I couldn't move from a faetal position for hours, was sobbing from the pain and had to call out a doctor. He put a hella big needle of something into my lower spine, sacrum area, and then two weeks of diazepam. Turned me into a zombie. Five years later got thrown off a horse and had serious arm problems for months until a chiropractor nailed the issue as referred pain leading back to some displaced C-discs. Not so bad compared to others, I have been lucky.
