When they removed bandages after 2nd degree burns. Hurt 10 times worse than when I actually burned them! No pain meds.

Holy sh
holy shit. That’s crazy. Has your skin regrown after that?
Kidney stone... hands down.
Childbirth 4X no drugs.
When I was seven, I fell from the high bar while learning to complete a giant. When I fell, my arm cushioned my behind from the full impact. Broke my ulna and radius right above the wrist and somehow they crossed in the excitement. That was fun. The doctor was so focused on the carnage of my arm, he never thought to check my back. 12 years later... finally figured out why I had back pain equivalent to a 90 year old with arthritis.... Crushed 2 vertebrae.
That was an extra treat throughout pregnancy. Along with random pelvic separation/ dislocation. Just a blast.
I have ripped every thing in my shoulders, dislocated my right knee cap, tore up both ankles, dislocated and separated my right elbow, fell off a landscape wall chin to the ground, more stitches over the years than I can count....
It's not uncommon to find me on the floor with my kid's lacrosse ball wedged under my lower back/butt just so I can get my back to relax.
That kidney stone still wins, though. The only time I've ever puked from pain.

Probably when I fractured my radius/ulna on a camping trip when I was 12, in the mountains along the Chattooga river. Got to spend the night and hike 6 miles out the next day, then ride home for medical attention.
Honorable mention- dislocated shoulder, or C4-5 herniated disc. That might have actually been the worst because of the long, never-ending nature of that pain.

Explaining to America 1st that he’s a crypto court jester
Physically it’s when I Stuck paper clips in an electrical outlet when I was 9 and that was a really deep nerve pain that fucked me up for a while

It’s getting there. Will have some scarring. Just have to be super careful in the sun.
The trick to the paperclip, is to stick it through a pencil eraser before poking it in the socket!

Bruised sciatic nerve in a car wreck, best way to describe it is having gas poured on your leg and set on fire. Also broke my neck in that wreck but that nerve was excruciating pain.
Either compound fracture of my femur at 13 which was really intense when happened or the 5 yrs before I had back surgery from 23-28. That longterm pain will ruin your entire world. Could only pass out to sleep. Pain meds sucked and muscle relaxes were a joke. After the surgery i wouldnt tale any drugs and was sick for 2 weeks w withdrawals. But that wasnt nearly as bad as the everyday every move pain that was my back
In HS, I had a sty(sp?) remove from the inside of my eyelid.
Sat in the chair and Dr. proceeds to give me a shot directly into the eyeball. Instant flop sweat.
Then he went to the scalpel BEFORE the numbing took effect.

I remember this thread from that other place... So I will give the same answer I did back then.
Circumcision... I couldn't walk for a year afterwards.

First 7 years. Grand Forks then OTE at Vandenburg. Arm was caught in the door of the Launch Support Building. Was lifted out by stretcher then helo ride back to base. Still have a 6 inch plate with 6 screws in my arm. First and last time I had morphine. That shit was good
Having a 1400 pound cow step directly on my mouth after being nocked down. Lost 5 teeth when I was 11 years old. Cutting off my pinky finger. Who knew so many nerve endings could throb that much.
Im a bit accident prone (not clumsy). Have broken bones, accidentally nailed my fingers to a house using a pneumatic nail gun when I was 18, etc.
But the worst was in college, I was eating a sandwich outside and reading the State news. Bit the sandwich and crunched into something. Thought it was weird, then I felt shooting pain under my tongue. A yellowJacket had landed on my sandwich and the stinger ended up going into the underside of my tongue towards the rear.
Tried ice chips, was salivating - luckily no swelling. Finally drove myself to the hospital and asked them to shoot it with novocaine. They did not oblige me and gave me benadryl. Wore off after about an hour.

Honestly, when Trump was elected. It was more fear than pain, but I was staring at the TV actually crying.
Story time.
One of the MDs I worked with while in the Navy did a circumcision on a guy. The patient was told no running, jumping or standing for 1 week. About 530 PM here comes this guy walking down the street with the front of his uniform a bloody mess. He had played basketball and popped all his stitches. Packed his "injured" member in ice for about 15 minutes before it was resewn.
I heard a guy talking about hunting in snow. Squatted to take a dump and crapped on a bear trap. Trap clamped on his balls. He said the real pain was when he ran out of chain.
Worst immediate pain is a toss up between cutting my eye with a bullwhip, and slicing frozen sausage one morning, I cut the tip of my little finger off.
Surgery recovery for umbilical hernia was long and very painful. Never had a broken bone or anything so I can't compare.

When Aeris died
Nothing worse. The last ones I had they had to put a stint up my penis for 3 days. I had a string hanging out of the end like a long tampon string. It hurt so bad I had my Xwife (we were dating at the time hold my hand when I peed.
After that I swore off salt, soda, and nuts. Not a problem since.
