Worst pain you have ever felt?

My body doesn't respond to numbing and I had a nerve block in my peripheral nerve earlier this year. Large needle going into the back of my knee just so I could feel nothing for a few days after surgery.
 
I'm not sure, most of the time when I get "hurt", it's usually a cut or a bruise which don't hurt that much.

I guess I'll just say this one time when I was in probably 4th grade and I was about to eat Spaghetti for dinner. I was stupid and I started to lean the plate towards my body while walking and I didn't even realizing it and the Spaghetti ended up spilling all over my chest and stomach (I wasn't wearing a shirt at the time) and I got burned. The Spaghetti on my plate was really hot since it I grabbed it immediately after it was ready.

I also got shocked once which hurt a little and I sprained a wrist in the 5th grade when I fell off the Jungle Gym. I have never broken a bone, though.

Edit: Had four fingers slammed by the car door. It hurt really bad for a few hours. And when a box fell on my head and it started to bleed a lot, it left a bump on my head for a month.

Here we go~~~~~~~~~~~

It was my fourth time there, so I knew what to expect and to ask for numbing cream so the IV doesn't hurt. They asked if a new nurse could put the needle in. I was for it. I mean, why not? She's obviously gone to school for this kinda crap. They put the cream on, waited thirty minutes so it could work great but they could still get the vein up.

Then, they pulled the tourniquet tight and I hate that so I was like 'oh-ow.' The nurse put the needle in and it hurt, but what could you expect. Getting blood drawn every week kinda makes your veins ache A LOT. so I went about my business, went to the bathroom to change into my infusion-clothes (bootyshorts and a tanktop. It burns me the frick up.) and I answer a few questions and they take me on up to my room. They start the iV-IG and it HURTS. I tell my grandma, who says it's just the medicine. (keep in mind they gave me some zofran via the IV, for nasuea. It usually burns a bit, so I didn't complain.) Within, about, eh, 15 minutes my arm swells up. I panic, start crying and calling for a nurse. They tell me the nurse put it in wrong. They move it to my other arm and it's all better :D

But, oh my god, the pain. The entire time my left arm felt like it was on fire even the next day.

I was 9, first time I ever had a slip-n'-slide. I was happy as hell, I mean how rad is that?

We clean the area for it. Making sure no rocks, sticks, etc were sticking up or around.

I side on it until I feel an intense pain. I look down and blood just pours. and pours. and pours and pours and POURS. I screamed, my dad and mom come out (well, i mean. My grandpa and grandma, but my mom wasn't around until I was 10 and my dad, well, he's a ****.) and they see it and they both turn white(r than they are). My grandma runs in to get a lot of gauze and paper towels. My dad stays to calm me down. After about an hour, it's finally done bleeding.

It's now a scar.


As mentioned, I have a blood disorder. This means a nose bleed can land me in the hospital. Up to this point, the two nose bleeds I had this year (school-year wise.) lasted for over an hour each.

I come into the living room, a tissue not helping and blood dripping from the tissue onto the floor. They go to get this nose =-swab thing that makes it stop by doing a thing (can't remember the name but it's whatever is in this thing.) and they swab it around in my nose.

It feels fine. And then, some drops on my upper lip (on top of my skin, not into my mouth.) and I scream. It burns. I cry for five minutes while bending over holding the tissue on my nose.

I'm so grateful I have never had to handle any excruciating pain so far in my life. :( I'd say I have a low pain tolerance and I could freak out over operations so... Sigh. Anyway, it was probably when we were forced to use exercise bikes at school and for some reason the bike I was on ****ed up and I sprained my ankle/foot/whatever. It was painful. I could barely even move it. It was just like having the most painful cramp you could ever imagine all the time, especially when you tried to move it. I had to move about by just crawling on the floor... So yeah, I had to take days off of school until I could actually walk again.
 
Physically, when I slammed my ring finger with the car door. It hurt so much that my nail swelled and blood just kept oozing out. Good times :/
 
When I had 10 alsers(they are like mouth sores) in my mouth all at once.
Gosh that was horrible, I couldn't eat anything :(

I second this! I'm prone to them and have multiple ones a lot. It makes me unable to talk! >_<
 
I have a pretty high pain tolerance, so there's not that much noteworthy.


The only real excruciating pain I've ever had was with my wisdom teeth. They didn't hurt coming through at all (I still have the bottom set) but one night whilst I was in a bar playing pool the top right ones just essentially exploded for no apparent reason. Didn't hurt at the time but then again, I was already pretty drunk.

I went for a few months of on/off excruciating pain with them which got worse when I had alcohol for some reason. I'm not one for shedding tears or making a fuss or anything but wow, there were a few times where I just couldn't help it.

I eventually just faced my fears and went to the dentist who ripped what was left of them out...Both curing my pain and reminding me why I'm scared of the dentist.
 
It was probably when I had lung surgery. I was lying on one side of the bed and they had to roll me over on top of a stiff board to take x-rays after the surgery. The car ride home wasn't very pleasant either because of all the road bumps and stopping.
 
i've been hurt so many times in my life but the one that takes the cake is....
BUTT ZITS
 
I'll put this in a spoiler since I guess it may be considered graphic?

I had an appendectomy and cholecystectomy when I was 9 years old. It wasn't a laparoscopic surgery; they also did an exploratory intestinal procedure because they couldn't locate the precise cause of my symptoms prior to the operation. I was hospitalized for two weeks after the procedure for monitoring, and in that time was completely enfeebled to the point of being bedridden. The worst part for me wasn't the pain or vomiting, it was the fact that I was going to have to use a bedpan. I was so utterly disgusted by the mere idea that on my third day of recovery I convinced myself that I was going to get up and walk to the bathroom, regardless of the fact that I was told to stay in bed until they deemed me ready to sit up and walk around. It took me around half an hour to even pull myself into a sitting position and swing my legs off the side of the bed, and I felt like someone was twisting a dull, rusty butter knife through my gut the entire time. It hurt so much that I ended up vomiting off the side of the bed. I didn't know it was humanly possible to feel that much pain prior to this and am surprised I didn't pass out, but I managed to pull myself up and hobble my way into the bathroom with the help of my IV drip stand. The whole round trip took me close to an hour, but at least I was able to pee in a toilet.
 
I supposed mine would be when I was 10, while playing Bulldog I fractured my cheekbone on concrete floor. I don't really remember it to be honest other than being told I screamed a lot and that the next week my face was so swollen I could barely open my eye.



From my memory though, the worst pain -not stinging wise, but for how bad it was for how long it lasted- was getting poisoned with selenium and calcium earlier this year. This was through some medication and working with them in my labs my body somehow accumulated too much of both over a month and I had this slowly worsening pain in my shoulder and ribs, which spread to most of my joints.
It kept worsening until most of me was in pain, and my doctor couldn't find out why or find any regular pain killers that actually helped it. And then I ended up with a cough, which because of how much pain I was in I couldn't stay standing while coughing and kept falling to the floor unless I could get to something in time. Because of this I ended up in hospital, and after they done more tests and found how stressed my body was, found the problem, and cancelled my meds and forced me to stop with my final year project. But they couldn't do anything for the bone pain outside of keeping me drugged up in hospital for however long. And I didn't want that (I'd managed somehow for a month already) so I ended up spending a total of 4 months in pain, with it slowly fading away as my body processed the chemicals naturally.

I graduated and got a really good grade for my project though, so kinda worth it?
 
Braces. For some reason mine hurt longer and more severe than my peers' braces. I sounded messed up when I talked and I couldn't eat ANYTHING. It was hard to eat ice cream on the first day. To be honest though, the spacers before braces were even worse. When I had spacers, I couldn't even drink water properly. Yeah, that's how much it hurt. I'm not even sure how I survived that summer.

When I was in kindergarten I fell flat on my face while I was playing tag with my friend. I don't remember it that much, other than I scraped up my face and I was bleeding everywhere. I remember falling down, then slowly lifting my head up. My friend looked at me in shock, and then I just burst out crying. The teachers finally noticed and took me to the nurse. I wasn't in school for a while after that.
 
I accidentally closed the garage door on my hand. Imagine hundreds of pounds crushing your bones.

Not pleasant. Thankfully, my mother was there to help me.
