cosanostra Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Cycling home from my old man's boozer when i was about 17, i thought it would cool to go down a kerb with no hands on the handlebars. I bumped down, the front wheel spun so it was perpendicular with the frame and the bike stopped dead throwing me forward over the handles. I put my left leg forward to try and stop myself and my knee bent backwards at the joint (aaaarggghh!!!). I landed on the bike frame and broker 2 posterior ribs and my collar bone, all on my left side. Most painful thing i've ever done. Over to you.

Therapist Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 I got a black nail doing some DIY when I hit my index finger with a hammer. There cannot be anything more painful than that. Even child birth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cosanostra Posted March 2, 2009 Author Share Posted March 2, 2009 I got a black nail doing some DIY when I hit my index finger with a hammer. There cannot be anything more painful than that. Even child birth. The door of my washing machine fell off once onto my big toe, it's probably about 10lbs in weight and it landed on the outer metal rim. That shot of pain I got had tears in my eyes and me jumping about and swearing like a lunatic. Probably quite similar to a hammer blow on a digit.

cosanostra Posted March 2, 2009 Author Share Posted March 2, 2009 Playing fitba at uni squire. And it has done. Twice. I thought it might. Kneecaps are horrendous for repeat dislocation. Quite painful as well so i've heard. After it's dislocated once, the integrity of the joint is vastly reduced. I hope the radiographers didn't hurt you too much mate.

Carl Fredrickson Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Aged 15 i stopped playing Boys Club football and played for an amatuer team instead (Breakers Cafe of Birkenside for those old enough to mind it) On a frozen winter pitch, as a goalie, i would wear jogging bottoms. This particular day i came out to gather a through ball, and as I went to ground a forward came in with his studs up. I grabbed the ball, got thumped and felt an awful blinding pain in my groin area. I put my hands down instinctively to check things were still there and my white glove turned red. Stretchered off and in the changing room my joggers and underwear wear removed to reveal a hornendous gash in my scrotum. I fainted. 8 stitches were required and I hope never to feel pain like that again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The People's Chimp Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Broken leg, skiing accident age 13. It broke right through the tibia and fibula but i was young enough and the break was clean enough, to avoid pins. I have to say the time i was playing sixes on the grass and caught a stud in the grass and twisted my knee, which popped and which immediately grew to about 3 times its normal size was a close second.

Chad Sexington Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Collapsed lung. It's not so much the collapsed lung that's painful, it's the dirty great chest drain they stick between your ribs to re-inflate the lung. Very nasty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cosanostra Posted March 2, 2009 Author Share Posted March 2, 2009 Nonsense. They whine about broken nails and headaches, never mind more serious stuff like a chesty cough. Seriously, women do cope better, especially older women. One of the procedures we do is called lithotrypsy and it involves electric shocks to break the stones into smaller stones that can be passed. Men can rarely cope as well as women for some reason. I've seen young guys absolutley blubbering because of the dementing effect that the pain can have.

brownkg Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 2 things are kind of joint first for me. when i was 14 we used to play "ice-hockey" in the garden with a hand sized ball and golf clubs. there was no problem all that summer till my shinty playing cosin from iverness joined in and , not understanding the NO CLUBS KNEE HEIGHT RULE, put a 3 wood right in my gob. the ten teeth in the front were prety much shattered. I was holding a pile of teeth just like a cartoon character in my hand ,bleeding like hell and trying not to kill Neil who was standing there, offending club in hand, saying "are you alright?". I spent the next 4 years going to the dentist at least twice a week and got to the stage where he could work on my exposed nerves without me taking a jag or gas. he told me whne I was 21 I would get a crown on the national health no problem. You know , without me telling you, that he was lying and you cannot imagine the pain of having to find ?600 in the 70's to pay for your teeth as a tax dodging student. Now that pain ranks equal with the one I got when my girlfriend of 3 weeks father ( now wife and f-i-l) asked me to help him move the 25' I section girder that was to be the lintel for his Sun-lounge windows. I was walking backwards and he was at the other end. I tripped/was pushed and ended up with severely sore manhood , note the over dramatic severe understatement, trying to curse him sounding live Alvin chipmunk. My sons don't believe he meant it i am not so sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wibble Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Never broken a bone TFFT, but pancreatitis creates a bit of extreme discomfort. First time I got it the pain started to build in the night, about 3am I was on my knees begging the wife to take me to A&E, by the time we got there I was seeing blobs of colour and was totally unable to stand still, wriggling around trying (in vain) to find a position that was more comfortable. I remember thinking "this is it, I am definitely going to die here, but right now that wouldn be a relief". I was standing up and I could feel a tap,tap,tap on my chest - i looked down and saw a river of sweat pouring off my chin like a tap. 3 syringefulls of pethydine and morphine finally eased the agony.

The Doctor Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 I dropped the top of a coffee table about three feet right onto my wee toe fracturing it. I was only wearing socks. I cannot describe the pain, I was ready to cut my foot off. It doesn't seem much compared to some of the other stories, but in the same way getting a paper cut can be more painful than slicing your finger chopping carrots, crushing my wee toe was much worse than any other mishap I've had!

Angry Haggis Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Done a few painful breaks and scrapes over the years but the one for me was a chap I work with.... Basically he was running down a set of stairs, lost his footing and fell over non-spectacularly. He got up screaming in agony (the next bit is not for the faint hearted..) Basically he had twisted his nads around one another on the fall- trip to the hospital in agony for some minor surgery to repair. Apparently it?s pretty common..Oucha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
