So what's the worst pain you've ever experienced?
Mine was when I had testicular torsion. It pretty much felt like I was being continuously hit in the crotch for two hours.
shareI've never had any serious, serious injury...but one of the most painful injuries I did have was last summer. My sister made me get a manicure and pink & whites for her wedding...I never really have nails, so I wasn't paying attention to their existence while I was washing my car the next weekend. My hand slipped while I was working on the door and my hand went under the handle. My finger went under the handle...the pink & white (kinda like acrylics, I guess?) stopped at the edge of the handle. This was my pinky! When I went to suck on the poor thing, make the pain go away, I realized the nail - the WHOLE nail - was only hanging on by the cuticle. I could lift it like a lid and peek underneath. So I took my roomate's Gerber tool, gripped the nail with it, closed my eyes and pulled. Hurt like friggin' I don't know what.
Watching this movie made me feel like a complete wuss. It also made me very thankful I've never had to experience true, complete, serious pain like that...or like yours man, that sounds seriously painful!

PERIOD CRAMPS lol. Sometimes I wanna bash my head on the table and knock myself out. Nothing compared to cutting of a limb (Or giving birth i'd imagine) but going through it once a month isn't the best part about being a woman...
Maybe spaining my ankle, I dunno, like the poster above me, I also lost a nail, whic hurt pretty bad, exept it didn't happen straight away, my toe was black for like a month, and the the nail just fell off, more gross than painfull though.

In regards to the nail falling off, that's happening to me now. It's not painful at all, just gross. I would wave my nail-less toe around to freak people out. I would pull my foot up and go, "Notice anything?" And they'd slowly start to see that I was missing an entire nail. This happened because I was wearing heels! My middle toe did not fit well into the shoes, as the top was cramped (which hurt pretty bad). I usually prevent blisters by putting bandaids around the toe that hurts the most. But I didn't expect the top of the nail to suffer that much damage. I guess with all the pressure from wearing the shoes all day, the toe just got really bloodied under the nail. It was a deep red/black. A week or so later, I noticed that my toe nail was detached. I used a bandaid to keep it on for as long as I could, but it fell off sometime during the night. It's growing back pretty normally though.
I think period cramps are also the most pain I have experienced. I remember the first time I got them, I swore I was dying. I was like immobile, headache, felt like something was pulling at my insides. Of course I take medication now, but it still hurts.
Another really bad pain I felt was when I was wearing cotton pants in the 4th grade and I was sitting on a bench. My friend slid next to me and pushed me across the bench. I noticed some sharp pain. When I went home, I saw that I had so many splinters in my thighs and butt from pieces of the bench (now that I think about it, it must have been sticking out from the pants, haha, I can't believe I was walking around all day like that). It was so painful taking them out. Like really thick and big splinters.

I was more replying to Heat than to Kamisch, because Heat's toenail turned purple/black before pulling off. Of course with Kamisch, it must have hurt since she had to pull it off after it was ripped off. I wince even when I just have to pull a hangnail out.
sharesprained ankle?
hahahaha
Step aside Butch
Believe it or not labor is period cramps. except 5-10 times more worse

I was six and fell head-first into a brick fireplace. There was blood everywhere and the top of my head was cut pretty badly. It hurt like hell.
House's House of Whining! State your complaint.
The worst pain I have ever felt was a kidney stone. That is by far the worst pain to go through especially when you don't see it coming. Think of a shard ripping its way out of your kidney line....
share1) When I was about 4 or 5 I was in the back of a pick up truck with my dog (a very large black lab/german shepard mix). My dad was driving and when we pulled onto my street my dog jumped out of the truck. I freaked out but we weren't going very fast so the dog was fine. Anyways, he didn't have a leash on but a very long thin rope tied to his collar and I was walking him down the block to our house. The rope ended up getting wrapped around my knees and apparently I didn't notice but when my dog saw our house he took off running and I got the WORST rope burn on the inside of my knees. Taking a bath after that was agony.
2) My chain fell off my bmx bike and I needed to use a screwdriver to put it back on the sprocket. Somehow I used the screwdriver to put the chain back on but my finger got trapped between the chain and sprocket. I was in shock but I calmly pedaled backwards to get my finger out but after that I screamed bloody murder. My finger was all bloody but it didn't break or anything but the pain was SEVERE.

Believe it or not, chronic tooth ache - I had a cavity last year - is the worst physical pain I've ever felt in my life! Because it's right in your head there's just no getting away from it. The root canal surgery was nothing compared to the suffering that bugger brought, though I understand it's actually the infection that causes the pain?
I have a pretty good pain threshold and managed to put up with it for weeks but on the day I could finally take no more, I cried like a little baby at work. Highly embarrassing in front of my work colleagues!
Mind you, the £310 dentist bill hurt too...

3 words: INFECTED WISDOME TOOTH! Worst pain I ever had in my entire life. I have broken my arm, 2 fingers, and severly injured my tailbone. Nothing compared to this infected tooth. I told the dentist to give me the strongest drugs they could and just tried to sleep for 48 hours straight.

^^This. I had kidney stones when I was six and the pain was horrific. I remember everytime I had to pee I had to sit in a tub full of hot water so the stones would break up upon exit. I was constantly bleeding out and it felt like a knife was stabbing at my genital area, and the stones got big enough were i needed emergency laser surgery that next week. Nothing in life ever got that painful again LOL!!

Wrenched my knee, strained Achilles. Not so bad. But it was skiing. And my boot became unlocked to the ski and it was during this weird sticky snow blizzard where I couldn't re-snap by boot into my ski. Each time I was so close to re-snapping it, too much snow would collect. So I had to walk and walk and walk and walk down the mountain in this blizzard where I was sinking into the snow. Pain was so bad I was thinking about stabbing myself with my pole to take my mind off the other pain. OH THAT MAKES SENSE. ha ha.
