To ask what's the worst (physical) pain you've ever experienced?

[canwetalkaboutcake]

I've never broken a bone or given birth, but I have had some very painful periods that have made me feel like I'm going to pass out. Also terrible travel sickness / vomiting on a 20 hour trip that left me wishing for death due to how crap I felt.

Dental sinus.

Recovery from c sections

Gallstones.

A colonoscopy. And I've given birth twice.

Forceps delivery. Excruciating.

ibs. i frequently faint due to the pain level. giving birth was a breeze with no painkillers.

I dislocated my arm and it made me scream out loud. That really hurt. That , and childbirth .

Hallucinated with the pain of my appendix. Dental abscesses a close second.

Gallbladder infection.

Gas pain during C Section.

cluster headache

Labour and childbirth without a doubt.

I slammed my thumb in a car door. I fainted twice.
I have had a dental abscess, and awful period pain. Neither came close.

I have broken a bone in my foot, and that barely hurt at all.

When I had an air bubble in my chest/shoulder following a C-section. Even morphine didn't touch that pain! I thought I was dying

Two burst ear drums on same day... hideous

Corneal abrasion.

I’ve given birth to three children and the worst pain, by a very, very long mile, was bursitis in my shoulder. I genuinely thought death would be a release.

Being induced on syntocinon. I begged for death and they just turned it UP.

An infection/recovery after my 3rd section.

Sinus pain. Compared to that, childbirth was a breeze.

2 veey infected ear canals where ear canals so inflamed the sides were almost touching Wanted someone to literally chop my head off.

Childbirth was a breeze in comparison

Recovering from caesarean sections.
Oh, and labour itself.

It's a tie between unmedicated childbirth and pulmonary embolism.

Another for forsteps delivery and the recovery. Pregnant with DC2 now and terrified of childbirth. Have also had some awful period pain I’ve put up next to childbirth. Awful!

My second birth. And having an injection into the sole of my foot

Labour pain. The feeling of contractions as you're approaching transition. I felt like my spine was going to snap in half. Hideously painful. For something that's so natural, it sure doesn't feel like it!
