The Red Sox losing to the Mets in 1986. :smash:

on two occasions, I had to get a needle in the botton of my foot. Worst pain I ever felt.

Kidney stones are pretty bad. The spasms from the 2 herniated disks I have now are just as bad. The accident that broke my jaw and knocked 2 teeth out is not even worth mentioning compared to the back.

#1
short version, tree limb, chainsaw ,”ladder”, limb fell, knocking ladder out from under me, when I got to the ground the chainsaw followed. Bounced the chainsaw blade off my knee cap. It had stopped running before contact but still cut through jeans, got sick to my stomach, Very short nap followed.
#2
In 1984 sneezed and did the pinched nerve in the lower back thing. Still got a spot on the top of the foot with no feeling.

#3
Same here except you forgot they send in some sweet young thing to put in the catheter tube that suddenly looks the size of a baseball bat and feels like it, where it doesn’t belong. She cradled me so tenderly and zip.... Seeing me holding the bed rail white knuckled she asked if it hurt. I whispered YES. So she pulled it out and repeated the whole thing again.... same results, it still hurt. She asked if it still hurt and I whimpered no. fool me once and I won’t fall for that one again. Got even though. shoulda seen the look on her face as that bed pan filled to the rim. she should have used a much bigger one.

Not sure I can top some of the ones already put up but....

1. Back pain - playing basketball came down flat footed (white guy that could jump) and compressed a disk. had to walk to the T and had trouble lifting my leg up to a curb. 1 week on the floor with flexeril and it only goes out once in a while now.

2. Helping my dad out when I was 10. Putting stone in an electric cement mixer, reached around with one hand and put the other where it was not supposed to be. Had two fingers stuck between the gears but that did not hurt. When they got the gears off and blood started to rush to my two crushed fingers, now that hurt.

3. Dropping a big pipe threader on my sneakered tow, hurt. Not releasing the blood for a couple of days and then having to have the doctor poke the nail with a hot needle, and then squeeze the tow. That hurt.

Good luck with the recovery BF.

KIDNEY STONES!!!!!

Line drive in the face while pitching in little league, I'm lucky that it didn't do any permanant damage.

1. broken rib- never heals right still aches-hs football
2. broken collar bone-doing stupid things with a dirtbike
3. back pain- bulging disks and pinched nerves from lifting and doing lots of stupid things
4. The bone on your top of your foot, dropped a truck tire rim on it, doesnt hurt much, accept when you put weight on it.

Pain
 

Gall stones !! The floor jumped right up and hit me in the face.:bc: :bc:

the gout is my worst pain i wouldnt wish it on anyone

Yep...me too. Stitches, busted collar bone and some things I wont go into detail on, all that stuff added up didnt beat sciatica on the pain scale. Walking (heck even sitting or laying) was pure torture ....even while on multiple heavy duty pain meds.....:eek5:

the first 5 days after getting blown off a jetty last Sept.

Dislcoated shoulder was the worst pain - especially awakening at night when i rolled. I can't drink nor take pain killers so i just had to deal with it. :uhoh:

broke my head ..2 week in the hospital .. preist gave me last rights.. too bad for the fish .. I lived .. :tm:

I had warts on my hands for a long time, seen many a doctor and all kinds of treatment. The last thing I had done was getting zapped by laser, they increase the # of jewels each vist. The first vist is like someone snapping a thin rubber band over and over in small area around the warts. They had increased the jewels and at the end it felt like someone snapping a thick rubber band ...it hurt like ^%$# hell, I left that day with tears in my eyes and swore I would never set foot in that place again.

3 Way Tie
 

1. Had shingles in my scalp and forehead last fall. Percocet wouldn't even touch it. Nerve root pain is a different type of pain. A deep searing like an internal fire.
2. Stepped barefoot on a tie tack with a 1/2 inch stud left on the wood floor at the bottom of the stairs by my daughter. Went into the ball of my foot with all my weight on it as I stepped off a step. Must have hit the bone. Holy %$%$%$%$!
3. Got launched off over the handle bars on my mountain bike. Outside of my knee landed on a softball sized pointed rock with my weight plus a lot of force. Tried to stand up but it felt like my femur would snap if I put too much pressure on it. I expected it to just break in half. It didn't and I drove myself to the ER on the way home. Turns out I deeply bruised the tendons and bone on the outside of my knee. Needed PT to get it right.

1.) 13.5 pound scaffolding leveling jack with a 6 x 6 x 1/4 inch steel plate welded to the bottom dropped/thrown corner down on right big toe.Hurt dance= 20 minutes.
Hurt enough to see spots.
Bought steel toe boots at 6:00 PM sharp the same day.
2.) Piece of slag off an air/gas torch (Molten steel 3000°+ F) INSIDE above mentioned steel toe boot. Wearing liner socks under long underwear under wool socks under boots under jeans. Melted right through all the layers to leave a nice purple dot.
Hurt dance/rolling around on the floor trying to get boots off=about 10-12 minutes.
That is all. Lucky.

For anyone that hasn't had the pleasure of experienceing the "hurt dance".....................
Get a hammer, hit your thumb, very hard.

Now, that is a dance that would make watching "dancing with the stars" with my wife bearable. Yes I was born here, my engish sucks.

had a friend who has since past away, hit his thumb while we were roofing. got so mad he smashed his thumb again crushing his thumb knuckle...moral to this story...don't do drugs

Gotta be back pain for me. Psyatica, (sp) couldnt really walk and when i could my left leg would just stop workin and down i would go, then tryin to get up. Also, jacked the back earlier this year at work, blown disc w2as inflammed because i guess the scholiosis that i didnt know about showed up, my back looked like one of those curvy road signs. Couldnt stand upright, felt like i got left behind on the evolution thing.
And the whackin your nails with metal things sucks good too. I piece of steel landed on my big toe, only the corner hit the toe, crap, did the pain dance for a week at work. The doc burned a hole in the nail and it squirted blood pretty good, felt a hundred times better but that nail is the nastiest lookin thing around.

When I had my bladder catheter removed after a very serious car accident when I was 18, not one of my better moments. But holy crap tubes aren't supposed to go up there nor are they meant to be pulled out! :(

falling off roof backwards while shingleing and landing on aluminum extention ladder....I had rung marks imprinted on my back for a month...and the ladder looked like it got ran over by a truck...man that hurt...

me too...cept i did mine twice same knee!

Skatboarding I must been 15-16. I skated for a shop up on the east side (thayer) we're shooting some footage of us doing tricks for a shop video. I'm jumping from one parking level to one below it doing a 360 kickflip. Ran through it once no problem. Didnt get it on tape. I run through it again, half way through it, Im in the air board is flipping hit the bushes in between parking levels ( I was jumping from the top to the lower level) so the board hit bush and it stops, it pokes straight up and I take it on the nuts. There were parking meters in the bushes that had the meters chopped off. The board hit the meter, pointed straight up whacked me good, and I slid down the rest of the parking meter pole cartoon style... You want to talk about pain

ditto there John. thats pretty much exactly how my injury went down. post-surgery wasn't much fun either...

Lost me mum, August, 2004

This hurt.

There is pain then there is THAT.
Don't have to hit them; just graze them...
How long before you could breathe again?

Beyond comprehension.
I can't even imagine that.
"Sorry for your loss" just don't cut it.
That just kind of took the wind out of the whole thread for me.

Your right SOK
All the injuries and pain become distant memories, but not the one about Mom.

When I was 5, back in the days of short shorts, I got my scrotum stuck in the handle bar axle of my Big Wheel.

There was the &^%$@#@ time ^%// in prizon(sp) #@!//soap//=shower//ouch%$#!:love:

Your right.

I lost my mom suddenly on 5/30/05. I miss her every day.

I bet that left a mark.:biglaugh:

I remember that story... made me shiver.
