Physically, what is the most painful experience in your life.

[Carbon]

Ladies for obv. reasons we are going to set childbirth at default here as the most painfull, in which case, ladies, what is the most physically painfull experience second to childbirth?

fellas. state your case.

Mine, i have 2, that i can remember.

The very 1st time i dislocated my right shoulder. I was inline skating (fruit booting lol). Probably the 3rd time on skates, i grabed on a rail to steady myself and lost my footing. I didnt let go of the rail and out of the socket she came. About 3 to four second later the joint went back in.

Irrigating a puncture wound on the botom of my foot. I had stepped on a nail and the Doc had to irrgate the wound with a saline soltion, unfortunatley the novocaine had not taken effect all the way.

Down the Ladder

I was crawling down the final part of the Basic Training obstacle course and I was totally spent. My arms were pretty weak and my legs slipped through the webbing and I was left to hang nearly 40 feet off the ground. My legs were wrung free by Drill Sargeants and I fell the 40 feet and hit square on my left shoulder with all 180 pounds falling on top of it. Extremely painful.

Dropping my bike going about 45 mph and the emergency room room nurse scrubbing out all the pebbles embedded into my road rash raw flesh on my hands, legs, and knees with a green abrasive pad.

Playing a game of woodsball I fell and shattered my humorous (upper arm). That wasn't too painful with the adrenaline and such. The EMTs carried me oot of the woods and gave me a morphine shot for the bumpy ride to the hospital. Then after waiting for an hour and refusing more morphine it came time for the xrays. Well that doesn't sound so bad you say, WRONG. They brought me into the xray room on the gurney and my arm was still immobilized, take your left arm and touch your right shoulder that's how my arm was strapped. Well in order to get a proper xray my arm needed to be at my side. Well when I say it was shattered I don't mean a clean break I mean my upper arm was jellyrific. The 10 seconds it took the nurse to pic my arm up and move it a foot and a half was so excruciatingly painful I don't wish it on my worst enemy.

There are two things I can think of. First is my 8th birthday party. At my old house the door to my room sometimes got jammed. It happened to me on my birthday party. We couldn't get it open so I was told to go out the window ( it was on the first story only about 3 ft up ) The window I had really didn't have a handle so you had to push it up by the glass. Not a good idea, the glass shattered and some of it went right threw my hand. So unfortunatly I spent 3 hours in the emergency room, but when I got back I got to break open a pinata :) The other expeirence was when I fell off my dirtbike on the road going around 30 MPH. Hurt pretty bad and got some crazy road rash.

Having my super-scapular nerve tested for conductivity.

Basically, they shoot several hundred watts through your nervous system to see if it works, and where it doesn't. Where it doesn't, you don't feel anything, and your arm doesn't move.

When it still works, however...

Either that or the first night out of the hospital. Woke up screaming several times.

/lather will wear leather next time

i stepped on a piece of wood on the beach once and it went through my foot, bought inch and a half long and a 5mm wide....... went to the hospital and they had to cut around the wood...... thet hurt...... and the doctor had a very shaky hand and missed a lot wth the knife

[thump]

for me it was when i was 13.my and a few friends were shooting pellet guns when one of them shot me in the bag.
theres nothing i can think of thats worse then having to dig a pellet out of your bag when there's blood all over the place.

ive had broken elbows,thumbs,toes,ribs and noting,,i meen nothing came even close to that pain.

Kidney stone is by far the most painful thing in the world. They say it rivals childbirth. Mine made me crumple to the floor, and it was a TINY one that passed relatively easily.

I've been Shanked, and Shot. i've had bones broken.
I've done alot of things that have harmed myself.

By far one of the most painful thing I've experienced yet was when my mother had my Father arrested, when he tried to come and see me.
After that, I had no idea where he was, if he was ok.
I didn't see him for a good few years-I never thought that I'd see him again.

WTF?!?

I can't say I've gone though much pain. But when I was about 10, I rode off the curb on my bike. Somehow, I ended up chipping half of my front tooth off, but barely getting scratched up (I thank my helmet for that). Exposed nerves are not fun....
