I got a Prince Albert piercing (a penis piercing which extends from the urethra to the underside of the glans) to use as an anchor point for my chastity cage, as I live a permanent chastity gay bottom lifestyle. God, it hurt so bad, lol! It’s considered one of the least painful penis piercings, so maybe I just have a low pain tolerance…

    Ingrown toenail removal. Worse than wisdom tooth romoval by far. The pain was so bad I couldn’t leave my bed for that first day, and I didn’t sleep until my third.

    Despite experiencing second degree burn on my hand, ripping open my tight down to muscles from a motorbike slide on hard gravel, raming my spine into climbing knobs while climbing down, getting my frontal tooths broken off almost to the nerves of the tooth, hitting an industrial cable roll in the warehouse in my face, and being hit with sling shot rock in the balls,

    Probably the most pain was when i was 4, i was at my aunts and her dog attacked me, i fell down stone stairs into her cellar, and the dog bit my nose clean off. I dont remember any exept the before, then a fall, me crying, then black then me in car crying, and thats it. The scar on my nose is probably gone now. But for years it was visible.

    The pain in my head after I received a spinal tap. Getting up in the morning came with pain that made me puke. Had to be hospitalized for a few days after a week at home.

    Nearly died from a ruptured appendix over 20 years ago but the pain was way less than this headache. Never again!

      That’s interesting. My problems started about 20 minutes after the procedure. I could not be even slightly vertical without the worst pain ever. I was in the hospital for a week before they finally did a blood patch and then I was able to go home the next morning.

      My doctors may want to do another spinal tap in the future and I will happily tell them to fuck allllll the way off. :)

        The procedure was done early in the morning. The doctor told me upfront that caffeine reduces the following issues but that I’d be up on my feet after 1-3 days. And right after the procedure I felt alright. I was waiting outside, my spouse picked me up and I spent the rest of the day on the sofa. When I felt some headache coming up I just went to bed early.

        The next morning was quite different though. When getting up the pain hit me so unprepared and hard, I nearly wasn’t fast enough to reach the bathroom before hugging the toilet for a while. Spouse went out to get me caffeine pills (“No need to get them right away, you likely wont need them” my doctor said) but they did nothing. Lying down was the only time I didn’t feel like my head is going to explode.
        Walking bent over so my head was haning down turned out to be an acceptable way of moving. Eating was… challenging.
        Within a few days, the physical stress and the caffeine pills made me sweat out all my Kalium so in addition to the pain my whole body started to shake unctonrollably. That’s when I asked my spouse to call an ambulance since I didn’t know at the time where the shaking was coming from. (And I live in a country where this whole ordeal only costs 75 €)

        Because of the constant shaking the MRI wasn’t conclusive so the doctors decided to keep me in the hospital for a while and think about whether they want to give me a patch or not.
        In the end they didn’t. Though they now knew I had a leak, they took so long to realize this, that it started to close on it’s own. I was then sent home. Took me another 3-4 weeks to be actually pain free.

        A few things I learned:

        • The intensity of the headache is related to your body type. Small, thin people are more likely to develop so called thunderclap headache (sounds a bit like your experience as well)
        • If you need to combine pain medication and caffeine pills, ask your doctor about something for excess stomach acid
        • If you start to get the sweats take care of your electrolytes
        • If you feel lik the pain is not getting better demand a patch until they give you one. I felt so much like they really, really didn’t want to do a patch. But no amount of discomfort can make me go willingly through this amount of pain again.
        • And the most important one: if there is even the possibility of you having ME / CFS don’t do it, unless it’s absolutely necessary and there’s no other way. In my case, we just could have waited a few months longer. I would have loved to know this upfront.
  • I got a tongue split in 2017 so uhh probably that. I have a high pain tolerance.

    Unintentional pain, probably the last time I ended up in the ER with severe food poisoning. I had fully emptied my stomach by then but my body kept going. The bile burns your throat and mouth when it gets that far along. It was so painful

    I find small pains, like papercuts to be extremely painful while a lot of more intense pain more tolerable. Like when I broke my arm I was cool and collected, but hot water from the faucet is extremely painful.

    My worst pain ever was kidney stone. Woke up so confused because I felt completely numb and had the urge to vomit. Then I moved and the pain came rolling in as waves.

    Went to the ER and they wanted me to pee for a test, but I couldn’t pee and the pain meds they were giving were worthless because of the whole pain med panic and had to convince them to give me a catheter so they could confirm what it was.

    Found out both ends of the pain spectrum are horrible!

    3rd place: abscess on tailbone. had to be lanced and drained.

    2nd place: cracked rib recovery; every sneeze, cough, laugh, or fart, would hurt like hell.

    1st place: herniated disc. holy mother of god!

    Tore a muscle in my back. My vision whited out and I thought I was having a stroke. I couldn’t move without the world spinning so hard I wanted to vomit, but every muscle contraction was a new wave of pain.

    Moving that cabinet turns out not to have been worth it. 2 years later and I can pretty much bend at the waist again so that’s nice.

    I thought it would be the ruptured appendix, but it turned out to be the dental abscess that made me wish for death.

    Had a c-section on a Thursday afternoon. For some reason, late Friday afternoon my doctor said I had to confirm if I wanted her to order any pain medication because no doctor would be on the floor overnight.

    Still don’t understand why I had to confirm ordering the meds, instead of her just leaving an order in case it was needed. Anyway, I asked if the epidural had fully worn off and if I was already in as much pain as I would be in. She said “yeah pretty much,” so I declined. Turns out that wasn’t true.

    A few hours later, a nurse came in to my room to check on why I was just letting my newborn keep screaming. She found me squirming around like a turtle on its back and sobbing while my husband was snoring and sleeping through all of it.

    I remember telling her I could feel my stitches tearing every time I tried to move (they weren’t, it just felt like it). I was begging for anything to help with the pain, but since the doctor left without putting in an order for any medication, she couldn’t even give me Tylenol.

    So far in my life, that has definitely been my most physically painful experience.
