Worst pain

I had gastroenteritis over Christmas and that was no picnic. At least when you feel like shit with the flu you can lie in bed an relax all day. With this not only did I feel absolutely terrible but I couldn't even lie in bed because I was backwards and forwards to the toilet every 10 minutes.

Had cracked ribs before but nothing compared being on holiday in Spain with dehydration without knowing I was dehydrated. The back pain was so bad I thought my eyes were going to pop out. Ended up on a drip in Almeria. Visited the Wild West town there the next day and it felt like a second life!

What I will say is it’s worse when you see somebody you love in pain and you can’t do anything to help. I watched my Nana go downhill over three years with shingles and saw her outgoing personality disintegrate.

Jesus mate, that's awful. I had no idea how bad shingles can be. I'm currently just getting over it now. Hasn't been too bad. Felt run down, mild cold symptoms and a nasty rash on my left collar bone.
Agreed though, my nan and my mam passed away in not particularly comfortable ways. Watching my mam has in some way changed me forever.
 
I live with constant arthritis pain but for acute pain the worst was when I got a spelk underneath my fingernail down to the root, then when I tore my ankle ligaments playing football (did both at the same time in a drinking accident but was so pissed I don't think I felt the worst of it, even managed to walk to the train and climb stairs at the other end, though had to get a taxi half a mile and the next morning couldn't even stand), and then the pain of an appendix caught just before it burst.

Had that a couple of years ago, after about 3 days of constant going back and forth to the toilet I had no idea how I had anything left in my stomach.

As for pain I've had nothing like some of the stories on here, I suffer from migraines and as a kid I used to get some horrendous ones so that's probably the worst.

People who have never had migraines have no concept of the pain involved .
 
Split my knee open on broken glass once. Not pleasant. Stitches put in before the anaesthetic had kicked in. Stitches out earlier than planned, wound burst open about a day later.
Kicked in the balls properly once as well. Never again.

I've had them for a few years and they've caused periodic uncomfort, severe itchiness, mild pain and some light bleeding when having had to do a twenty wiper etc.
However after laying a rather large cable on Saturday something happened. On Sunday I developed a pain and itch like never before. Come Monday and it's getting unbearable. Had to finger me ring to check it out to find a massive fuckin swollen lump there. Dropping the kids off was hideous. Missus got me some germaloid cream so gave meself a couple of courses of that before bed. Barely slept as the pain kept waking me up but just felt worse next day. The bum parasite was growing. Sitting down was torture but standing up worse. Any movement and I was whimpering. I was walking like I'd shat myself as a relaxed sphincter was way too painful. I couldn't bend over. I honestly could have cried.
I've broken bones, torn ligaments and had me balls kicked up into my belly before but nothing comes close to the pain of a large swollen nobby.
Thankfully last night I sat on the bog for a dump, screaming out in the process. After the payload had been deposited I slowly arose, turned around to inspect only to find claret all over. The beast had exploded. After a nasty clean up of the undercarriage and shower I had a decent nights sleep to find zero pain the next day barring the small open wound where it had burst. I was merrily skipping about my day today.

Anyone else suffered from a bad case of the Farmers?

Sounds absolutely horrific… glad you have managed to get some relief 🤞
