Oh, the pain of it all...

Earlier today I had a wee niggly toothache, which seems to have cleared up on it's own.

It got me thinking, I've seen a lot of people say toothache is worse than childbirth and I have to strongly disagree. Maybe I've just never had properly bad toothache before, a couple of ibuprofen and it's usually gone.

My question is this. What's the worst physical pain you've ever experienced?

I had an abscess on a wisdom tooth. The left side of my face and neck were massive, I looked completely deformed. Hospitalised for a little over a week, I will never forget it. The pain was unbelievable, it took over my body.

It was worse than giving birth for me.

I have to say, that toothache is definetly worse than childbirth. When you've had toothache so bad that your face swells up from your ear down to your throat' it's agony.

Earache is actually more or less on the same level too.

Gall bladder stones for me. When that pain hits you at night, spreading across your back, down your spine and into you hips and no matter what you did or pain killers you took nothing touched it, you just had to ride it out until the morning and it stopped.

I gave birth without any pain relief and I’d rather do that ten times over, than ever experience pain like that again

I had this problem in both shoulders a few years ago and had them treated with steroid injections. Half a minute of excruciating pain and then pain free ever since. Definitely worth exploring. Private consultant had suggested surgery to remove a bone spur ... guess that would have been more profitable for him. Second opinion and procedure via NHS resolved it.

For me it’s tooth ache, it was agony. I have given birth twice, one of which was back to back, but our minds are very clever at forgetting the intensity of the pain at childbirth thanks to some wonderful hormones. Having seen many births, childbirth is far more painful but toothache is fully in my memory, and is a pointless pain

Having a drain removed from my back after my mastectomy. The drain was in place for over a month after my surgery.

Skin had grown around the entrance area. I just told the nurse to remove it quick. Holy crap....worst pain ever. I laugh when Im in alot of pain!!

Toothache is definitely up there for me, when it’s been at it’s worst. I’d say childbirth but actually... worse than that was, without a doubt, severe abdominal pain due to an allergy I had (that I didn’t realise I had at the time). On a few occasions after eating the offending foods I was paralysed with pain, curled up on the floor in agony - it honestly felt like something inside had ruptured. Never felt pain like it since and hope to never again since learning to avoid foods that trigger it!

"Prolapsed discs sitting on my sciatic nerve... "

I've had this and it's awful, but learning to walk again after a accident and having metal pins in my leg cleaned everyday was absolute torture!

"Earlier today I had a wee niggly toothache, which seems to have cleared up on it's own.

It got me thinking, I've seen a lot of people say toothache is worse than childbirth and I have to strongly disagree. Maybe I've just never had properly bad toothache before, a couple of ibuprofen and it's usually gone.

My question is this. What's the worst physical pain you've ever experienced? "

Gall bladder attack...

I've had lots of broken bits due to my job but the most painful was being told not to look at my right hand & of course you immediately do & my motorcycle glove was ripped up with the thumb part parallel to my forearm next to my wrist pointing towards my elbow.

With my thumb still in it..

Got it put back together but gives me lots of gyp & has limited movement in the cold, sometimes seizing up all together until I massage it.

S

That smarted a bit

Why do you get a pain in the bum when you wash your hair?

Having my son on just pethidine & gas and air hurt, but I once had toothache that was insanely agonising. I thought I was going crazy with it!!

However, I had a hysterectomy in 2016 with an 8inch cut across my abdomen which blummin hurt. I then got trapped wind and constipation the day after which hurt like nothing else! I could hardly move to resolve it and even morphine didn't kill the pain. Oddly peppermint tea did more to help!!

I crushed the end of my finger with a rock (gardening accident). Worst pain Ever .. the nearest AnE doctor was out on call so I had to endure without morphine for an eternity! They gave me two paracetamol Ffs!

I remember thinking there was someone nearby moaning, then kept realising it was me!

Natural childbirth with no painkillers is close second for pain and intensity ..

but I kinda enjoyed that x

"I sequestered (slipped and ruptured) my L5/S1 disc

Nothing compares to this pain!!

Does that impinge the sacral nerve (bolts of lightning out your arse, across your groin and down your inner thigh)?

If so we have a winner. That, and cluster migraines.

Must be holding the shampoo bottle in the anus.

Getting a tattoo near my collar bone was pretty bad. But earache is awful too.

Sciatica and migraine have nothing on encephalitis and meningitis.
