I just used a nose spray as I was so bunged up. That crackly feeling all up my tubes was just lovely and now I can breathe again.

Also having a poo when you have been desperate is one of the best feelings too 😊

Having a wee I think! Or when your ears pop back

My infected sinus popped and drained away slowly and the feeling of unbearable face pressure lifting was unforgettable!

A freezing cold drink when you're hot and thirsty

3 weeks ago I had a poo after 5 days. I had tried everything and eventually after advice from here I managed it. God I felt good afterwards. I wanted to tell strangers in the streets about it! (I didn't). I had a baby 7 weeks ago and feel like I had more of a thrill from doing the poo!

I think I posted on that thread lol. My advice was legs up on a bucket for optimum poo position 😂 I have been that long and longer and fully appreciate that huge feeling of relief

When I stop walking like a 90 year old.

When my back is bad, and I get in the perfect position to click it

bbqhulahoop · 05/05/2022 19:37

When the placenta plops out after childbirth!

Greensleeves · 05/05/2022 19:38

When I've been trying for days to crack a tight shoulder, and it finally cracks. Flooding relief all through my body.

A massive orgasmic sneeze when your nose has been tingling for ages but wouldnt sneeze

The relief of getting rid of trapped wind, when it's so high it feels like it's in my armpit.

Greensleeves · 05/05/2022 19:40

Oh - and bra off at the end of a long day. Bliss.

Paracetamol after 48 hours of pain meds including tons of morphine for a kidney stone. The pain just shrank away. I was in tears I was so grateful. The nurse said it was the combination of drugs but next time I’m trying that first!!!

When you have really severe dental pain and the dentist gives you a local anaesthetic to sort it out. You literally feel the pain draining away and want to kiss the dentist!

Useranon1 · 05/05/2022 19:57

Scratching your armpit. Almost orgasmic

Sadandfedup2 · 05/05/2022 19:58

I read on here once about someone who held poos in so they could experience the bursting for a poo relief 😂

Puppylucky · 05/05/2022 20:02

That feeling when a viral illness clears. It's just that sense of the fog lifting and everything feeling better. I last had it recovering from Covid and it really makes you appreciate feeling normal

Painkilling drops in the eye after a corneal abrasion. Like dropping into heaven.

AleynEivlys · 05/05/2022 20:05

Definitely the crackling and slight delicious itching sensation you get when warm water finally trickles out of your ear hours after you went swimming!

iPreferBooks · 05/05/2022 20:07

When your migraine finally goes away 🙂

planetme · 05/05/2022 20:11

Getting your ears syringed when they've been blocked

chosenone · 05/05/2022 20:13

When I had compacted ear wax and had gone a bit dead I paid for a private suction. I literally had an eargasm 😆

And I got to see what came out after which was amazing! I think of it fondly.

One of my worst experiences was having had an operation and going home and realising I couldn’t urinate. I’d managed to once in the hospital that afternoon so i assumed I’d be ok. Unfortunately that next day my parent was moving house and I was staying with her as I needed to be with someone because of the anaesthetic I’d had. So when I realised I couldn’t wee it was nighttime and there was nothing I could do. In hindsight I should have gone to a & e but we weren’t thinking straight. In the morning we contacted the drs and fortunately they managed to empty my bladder (1.5 litres of urine stuck inside) and I was fine then. Painful experience I certainly wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy!

When ovarian cyst pain finally goes away. Such a good feeling.
