I don't mean awful illnesses that many people have to suffer and endure. I mean those every day types of pains that we all get now and again, like earache, blinding headaches, trapped nerve type thing.
What's the one type of pain that really brings you down and makes you miserable as sin.
Toothache for me is the very very worst pain out. It's the one thing I have no tolerance for, that completely drains me.
What's the one that really pulls you down?

Also I find that if I stub my toe that is horrible...seems to be ages before it stops throbbing!
Add in an abcess, and it's a recipe for pacing up and down the room holding and hitting one's head/neck/jaw for extended periods.
I once had an operation, and they neglected to give me the prescribed pre-operative analgesia. The post-operative pain was memorable to say the least!:eek:
Stubbed toes are the pits. You get that real deep sick feeling in the pit of your stomach.
Earache, that's another one that is a sickening type of pain.
Keyboard just got a soaking. I do that too - why I expect it to help I have no idea, it doesn't but it still seems like a great idea at the time.
How crazy does that sound!:eek:
After my lastest operation the painkillers they gave me didn't stop the pain. I was taking paracetamol and ibuprofen 7 times a day and for the first week it barely touched the pain. I was in agony.
I get absolutely awful earaches. To the point where the entirety of my right face and neck is in pain.
I spent a whole weekend doing it the last time I had an abcess:D
I was seriously considering asking the dentist to remove all of my teeth when I was seen!
Without a doubt the worst pain I've ever had was when I trapped my finger in a door and blood was trapped under my fingernail. It throbbed with every heartbeat and by the evening after it happened I was rocking back and forth, crying, wanting the pain to go away. It took a week before it stopped hurting and I lived for my 2 hourly doses of painkiller. I couldn't believe such a small injury could cause such intense agony, but after googling it I found that even medical professionals recognise how bad it can be so I felt like less of a wimp
I know, toothache does the same. It's such an all-encompassing type of pain....headache/earache/toothache.
I have a friend who is a Macmillan nurse. They always maintain that the head and neck cancers are the most unpleasant.
Suffering that for several days each month and for thirty years or more I'd say has to top the league in terms of recurring pain that brings you down.
Aside from that, though I havent experienced it myself, I'm sure childbirth has to exceed anything else in the pain stakes too.
It's really awful, the pain. However, I don't want to tempt fate but this past 12 months has been a lot better than previous years. I've only had two weeks off sick due to it in twelve months, the year before was six or seven weeks.
Earache is appalling, thankfully I only ever had that once in my life.
Headaches I rarely get but I hate them and it would stop me doing anything.
Sore throat is awful, I normally end up vomiting due to starving.
Is there nothing that can be done? Killing the nerve or something? Botox injection?
Second was when I smashed my toe nail off on the front door stop ( hard ,metal .ouch) it was agony,bloody everywhere ,throbbing.Took about a year for the nail to grow back and even then it was really thin .Dropped a fall length mirror on my toe last week,it's black now.Why does this cause so much pain?!
I hate the pain which I get in my right hip there is no angle i can sit or lie at that takes the pressure off.
We have a winner..:D
Stepping on an upturned plug is as a bad as it gets.
Childbirth is bad, but at least once the baby is out it's over. Toothache is out of this world in the pain stakes.
dental abcesses are horrible my face was so swollen I could barely open one of my eyes.
