True. Forgot about that one.

For me tearing my pec was the most painful. Feeling the muscle tear as the weight came crashing down was just weird too.

I have dislocated my knee and my shoulder, and the knee is much, much, much worse.

The worst pain I have ever had was when I had surgery to correct my chronic shoulder dislocations. I am allergic to all pain relievers stronger than aspirin, but not numbing agents, but I did not know this at the time, so I hurled the lortab that they gave me, and I decided not to take anymore. Well, in the middle of the night the numbing agent wore off. I woke up on the verge of screaming in pain. Never has time gone by more slowly than the time it took the aspirin to take its very mild effect.

Because of my allergy I know that someday I am going to be absolutely in terrible pain. Oh, well.

Apparently losing your leg in a motorcycle accident will hardly even be felt:

I put a guys shoulder back in place after he dislocated it during a church basketball game. He insisted on me doing it, despite my recommendation to go to the ER. His scream when it went back in joint was enough to wake the dead.

Wow, this is a cringe-inducing thread--but I couldn't stop reading.

My most painful experience: after I had surgery to correct my deviated septum, (yes, those nosebleeds were really not from picking my nose even though my parents told my friends otherwise) the doctor had put a finger from a rubber glove up each nostril and stuffed gauze in it. And I mean they were UP in there--so much that I had no idea they were there until it was time to remove the plugs.

I went back for the Dr. to remove the gauze a couple of days post-surgery. I hadn't taken any pain killers that day because overall, the pain had reduced to a dull ache around my nose.

As I sat in the chair, the dr., using his long tweezers, reached up my nose and unto the sinus cavity to grip one of the fingers, and slowly started sliding the finger down. Man that was a very strange feeling right there, but didn't hurt yet.

The pain started coming when the bottom of the finger reached the external opening to my nostril. At that point I realized that the diameter of the finger was signigicantly larger than my nostril opening diameter, and I tried to convince the dr. that perhaps the gauze didn't need to be removed.

I failed, and the doctor pressed (pulled?) onward. The stretching feeling the gauze finger subjected upon my poor nostril was not pleasant. I actually thought that my nose was going to rip. I started hyperventilating and my whole body, reacting to the pain, became flushed.

It took only a couple of minutes but seemed much, much longer.

After the birthing process was completed, I just laid in the chair, covered in sweat, knowing and dreading that we still had one nostril to go. Mercifully, the dr. decided to do the other one the next day so I could take some painkillers beforehand. I did, and the second one was nothing.

I was in Japan and didn't realize how hot the water can be coming out of the spigot. I turned it on, and got my shoulder underneath the stream on accident, and when it hit my shoulder, the skin melted right there.

That sucked.
