To ask you what's the most satisfying thing your body has done?

[Fstt1978]

I've been in hospital for a small procedure which left me with lots of trapped wind. I've been home for 2 days, turned over In bed this afternoon and did a completely silent but REALLY long burp which felt like it deflated my whole body and all the pain in my upper back and shoulders just went. It felt so relieving and satisfying.
My sister once pulled a hair from her foot only to find it was really long and had somehow wound over and under every toe and when she pulled it , she felt it on each one.

I had a ganglion on the back of my hand bigger than a pea so very noticeable if not particularly painful. I'd read that twatting it with a dictionary could make them go away and so that's what I did and it did! So satisfying to have instant flat hand again.

I also used to love having my ears syringed. Like having your brain washed.

Pretty gross so don't read this if you're squeamish.

I got pelvic inflammatory disease from an old copper coil. I was supposed to have had it out ages ago, but couldn't get an appointment. It ended up causing this massive infection. I was very close to going into sepsis and ended up in hospital.

I was at the point of trying to pull it out myself because the pain was significantly worse than childbirth. Then the doctor called me through to remove it. She asked if I wanted to see it. I did. It was covered in black gunge. 🤮 I've never been so relieved to have something out of me.

When you're older, you can do the sneeze, fart and wet yourself combo with no effort at all. And maybe put your back out too as a bonus.

I remember being very pregnant and I had a boil at the very top of my leg

I waddled/limped best I could home,sat on the bathroom floor,propped a mirror on my feet to hold it still and peered over my huge bump

It was that big it had two juicy heads,so I figured I'd burst one and then the other as I couldn't get in with my fingers-i was too fat,it was too painful and massive-the skin was really tight round it

I popped the slightly bigger one-the relief,blessed relief-and while mopping up (what felt like a pint of pus) I went in for the other

Thankfully it had gone-it must have been one boil with two heads

Dp once had this blackhead on his back

It was really juicy but the sod refused to let me anywhere near it

I finally got him to agree and I squeezed

At least 4 inches came out of his back-it left a whopping huge hole in his skin-so I squeezed again and at least another 2 inches came out before it closed up

Was well worth the telling off I got from his mum who kept going on about spreading germs and making it worse (I adore her but she thinks dp farts rainbows and sparkles-its like being bollocked by winnie the pooh)

This is hysterical 😂

I'm picturing your family running about like headless chickens

@violetcuriosity your tale of amazing bodily happenings, gave me a proper dopamine hit 😂. This thread is wild.

I've suffered for years with gynae issues.

One month I was struggling with a lot of pain during my period, much more painful than usual. This had gone on all day. In the evening I popped to the loo, felt I needed to push and the biggest blood clot fell out of me. I was the size of the palm of my hand and passing it had that sweet relief feeling you get when you have that last push and your baby slides out of you.

It wasn't until years later that I discovered I actually have endometriosis which explains the horrendous periods.

One morning I realised that I couldn’t move my nostril at all , I thought I was still breathing ok , but after extracting a huge huge bogie I could suddenly breath again- it was such a relief

and also some sort of abscess in my mouth, horrific pain, nothing touched it at all . Booked in for an emergency dentist appointment two weeks later. I read in an old body book that hot water on a cloth was good for bring boils and such to a head , so I put some nearly boiling water on a towel and bit down on it . It helped absolutely nothing, and I was so frustrated and in so much pain I bit down on this towel as hard as I could, and suddenly it popped and my mouth filled with puss - but the absolute relief was incredible.

luckily by the time I got to the dentist whatever was there was apparently healing nicely

Omg! Me, my mum and one of my daughters all have this in almost the same place... weird!

You're a strong woman.Thats admirable, slightly worrying, but very respectably hard as nails.

I’ve had both hips replaced and bounced back. First one was when I was 49.
The surgeon literally opened me up dislocated my hip, sawed it off, rammed a stem with ball into my femur and sewed me back up. Same day I was able to walk to the toilet us using a zimmer frame.
12 weeks later I was riding my horse.
To this day I’m so grateful, osteoarthritis was ruining my life and I was struggling to walk

I’m prone to a dust allergy thing that gives me itchy, watery eyes. Sometimes this causes a tiny bit of white mucus to appear in my eye just at the tear duct. Like a millimetre long.

What said mucus is made of I do not know, but it is so ridiculously stretchy that I can grab it between my nails and pull it a good 6-8 inches out of my eye without it breaking. It’s become quite a party trick of mine, much to DH’s horror 😀

Yes, fine spray but can project a surprisingly long distance. I've not had one for about 5 years. I believe I'm due one in the next couple years.

Or I could just follow the Wiki tutorial on how to do it on demand

Wow thats strange... Left or right shoulder???

@Helloyouok left.. all on the left..

Last week actually, I was in absolute agony from a terrible migraine. Couldn't move my head or eyes, pain travelling down my neck and even hurt to blink. After a couple of hours of this I was making deals with God to come and take me out because death would be preferable when I did the most incredible bout of projectile vomiting and migraine instantly cleared.

Omg. Same, genuinely. Too weird!

I love a big fart. A big loud one that feels like such a relief. Also a big satisfying sneeze. Having a wee after holding it for ages is bliss too.

A huge shuddering orgasm, any day.

also known as a 'Poodini' , named after the famous escapologist !

Same here - as though my stomach has twisted itself causing the migraine and the force of the vomiting makes the stomach revert back into shape then, ping, instant relief.

1. The post c-section poo. Had to hold my stitches in place!
2. My daughter had adenoids when younger. She was basically born snotty. In the end we used to roll up tissue and pull at the snot and start pulling and wrapping it around the tissue. It would go on and on. It was lovely. Used to get several spectators. Adenoids and tonsils removed. No more snot (or snoring).
3. Those lovely huge spots/blackheads that go pop. Love is my DH buying the best spot/blackhead removal set for Xmas.

Yeah, one of those moments I didn't know could exist until it existed 😂

I had a really bad cold when I was a teenager, when I woke up after a long sleep, the left side of my nose was completely blocked and the right side wasn't and I had the urge to pick it as it felt so crusty, I pulled out the greenest, crystallized piece of snot which was the entire inner of my right nostril. It had a tail on it which came from my throat. Think kryptonite 😂I could not believe the colour of the size of it and still think about it to this day, I am in my 50's now.

This is about my DH, he said the top of his leg was sore and asked me to look at to see if I could see why, it had been sore for a few days and upon looking he had a cluster of boils with yellow heads, turns out to be carbuncles.

I left him to go and ring the doctors for an appointment and the silly bugger had popped some as wanted some relief, I came back into the bathroom and the smell was absolutely disgusting and so much yellow/green bloody puss everywhere, he said they exploded with just a gentle squeeze, but the pain had disappeared on popping them. The doctor bollocked him for popping them and he got antibiotics to clear up any infection.
