Worst pain you've ever been through

Broken back. That defined my "10" on the pain scale.
Dislocated shoulder wasn't much fun, though that was a sustained heightened pain issue, since it took the docs almost 3 hours of pushing, prodding, and pulling to get the damn thing to go back in.
Various minor stab/slash wounds that hardly even register anymore. Though when I halfway cut my thumb off (not really, but I did slice it almost halfway around, all the way to the bone) having the doc slide the novocaine needle under the thumbnail wasn't much fun.
Migraine headaches, though remarkably the magnesium supplements seem to help some with prevention on that one. The LSD-derivative (no, you don't have to take ACTUAL hallucinogens, just things with the appropriate ingredient) drug I took when I was younger killed them damn quick, but it also had that nasty tendency to induce projectile vomiting.

I broke the growth plate in my big toe back when I was about 10 or 11. That was 14 years ago and it's still the worst pain I've felt so far.
When a nail went through my knee as a kid, was carrying a bunch of boards and the bottom one had a nail sticking out, fell backwards letting go of the boards, weight of all the boards drove the nail through my knee. Once they pried it out, I had to go through the fun of a tetanus shot.
Ever had a 1200lb horse step on your foot and not want to move? Escalating pain. Intense pain. It hurts, and darn it all, it annoys me. Happened to me three times, I think.
I remember shattering my chin open on a marble slab was not very pleasant. Enough pain to make me faint, anyway, but I was only 5-6 years old. I've hated Auntie Ann's pretzels ever since. (My chin feels like a mountain range!)
And it may not be that painful, but being shocked by a high voltage electric fence is certainly interesting, if not at all entertaining. You still vibrate after. (Stupid horse.)
Edit: I just remembered. Nothing surpassed the pain of that one ear treatment a particularly malicious doctor made me do. A tube of wax was put down my ear to pull out something or the other, or clean it, I don't know, but the treatment was not necessary. That was when my ear drum was gone. Anyway, a couple nurses had to hold me down, and I wasn't even eight years old. That HURT.

once i had my 4 molares removed (wisdom teeths lol) at the last one, the anesthesics wore off because i stressed too much, and i felt the last stitch with the needle going through my skin, it's a very uneasy feeling... i shed a tear that day.
another time, much younger, i was doing some monkey hanging on a "soccer"/football cage, and i sliped from the metal tube, to land on the one on the ground... when you fall on a metal tube at 1.5 meters, on the side of your body, it's very vulnerable and painful.
hopefully i didn't had no broken limbs, i think so...

Actually, I had that same problem. The peeling back didn't hurt that much. It was sudden.MDSnowman said:
Perhaps I should explain. About 5-6 years ago, I was changing my pants, which were located in the drawers under my bed. I was trying to pull them out, but they were stuck. By sheer force, I pulled the drawer out, but my left big toe-nail was in the way, and became stuck at a 90-degree angle with my foot. It didn't really hurt, but what did hurt was fully submerging my toe into a bucket of rubbing alcohol hurt like hell. My toe-nail didn't actually come off until two-and-a-half weeks later.
On an unrelated note, last Sunday, my arms started hurting. It felt like they were pumping pain. During the day, I was fine, but at night, the pain was so intense, I couldn't sleep. It was the only time it happened, though.
EDIT: I saw someone say they stepped on a nail. This happened to me twice. Once when I was really little. All I can remember was that I was on a roof in Mexico. The other was last year. My mother was making a tomato garden in the backyard. I, in my eternal wisdom (/sarcasm), decide to walk over the boards, and a rusty nail goes straight up my foot. I was lucky in that, 1) it didn't reach the bone, and 2) I already had my tetanus shot.
Also, I had a (not serious) soccer injury. Last year, in my phys. ed. class, we were playing "indoor multi-ball soccer" (best way I can describe it), and I managed to kick a soccer ball into the other team's goal (between two cones), and another soccer ball hits me on the side of my neck. For a good 15 seconds, I felt like I couldn't breathe, but after a while, I got the feeling in my neck again (2 seconds of pain), and jumped back in the fray.
Probably my worst pain was when I had the all the skin off the base of my foot cut off
There was blood everywhere, luckily I didn't have to drive to the hospital where they essentially sewed the skin back on
Makes me shudder just thinking about it...

Got a wisdom tooth removed, that hadn't actually grown out yet. There's not enough painkillers in the world to cover that pain. And I'm not all that sure that whatever medicine they gave me worked in the first place.
Over several weeks in gym class, I got increasingly worse shin splints, until I was waking up in the morning and taking pain killers just so I could walk. After about a month and a half the pain got so bad that even with painkillers I could barely walk. So one day our class was forced to to a mile run, after about halfway through, I fell down and started crying. I was wheeled out of class and sent home, thank god. The pain was like some grating my shins off with a cheese grater.
Probably breaking my foot then having to walk all about school the next day on it...Not fun. Not fun at all. That or the time I sliced open my finger with a pair of scissors on my sixteenth attempting to get my new PS2 controller out of the packaging. I actually have a list of painful moments.
Sharing war wounds is always fun! I had a chemical called Betadine applied to my back and shoulders to clean road rash i got from a bicycle wreck.
Betadine is an antiseptic like Isoprophyl alcohol used to clean wounds,baaaaaad wounds! Almost my whole back was skinned off from the wreck.
I was riding home on a 20 inch bike and about halfway there my front wheel came off since I was popping several small wheelies out of excitement from riding in the first days of school being out for the summer. "I was riding home for a part to prevent said accident"
i didn't feel much of the pain cuz my head was the first to strike the ground. This happened right in front of the emergency center wing of ST. Marys hospital. Two doctors saw me crash and both thought I was dead... Until I stood up.
Little did I know I had a broken collar bone and no skin on my back,shoulders,and left elbow.
The chemical applied to my skinned body hurt the most. But it was for my own good cuz without it. Infection would've killed me.
I've made a full recovery since so I'm happy.

I broke my wrist at a friend's house, then had to drive 30 min back to my house with my hand in my lap, then wait for my mom to take my brother to soccer practice before taking me to the hospital. During this time, the blood kept swelling in my hand around the fracture, putting more pressure and strain on the joint, nearly cutting off circulation in my arm, and causing me to pass out walking through the ER doors. Apparently I had to have 3 oz of blood drained out of my wrist before the doctors could take a look at it. And when i woke up, I hadn't recieved any pain medication and the pain was so bad i immediately threw up.
Having severe cramps at the same time as getting my braces put on.
I fucking love being a girl.

Still not through, the decadence here in Germany (the first Level in working out Deutschland - Wichteldeutschland - Teachland) pains me very hard.
these were all when i was younger,(8-12years) cant remember when exactly, and the pain would have been much worse then it would have been now....
1: first, i was at my sisters dance recital at her school. after it was over, i went to the schools playground, my mother told me not to play on the monkey bars... i did, fell off, and broke my arm
2: was riding my bike while camping, i didn't know i had the steering wheel around the wrong way, so when i tried to turn, the handle wouldn't move because it was stuck, so i rode off a 2 meter wall, landing on a pile of rocks, and having the brake handle going into my skull, was a painful as all hell
sorry for the long comment

I broke my leg once at work. I was driving the "jigger" as they called it, and I needed to go take a piss so I went to park just in front of a stack of wooden pallets with watermelons ontop. when I put on the breaks, it didn't stop. It crushed my right leg inbetween the machine and the pallet stack going about 9 mph. Felt a a massive POP! And for the most part i was just in shock, I really don't remember the pain.
Funny thing is, I hopped to the bathroom and took that glorious piss before I told anyone. Then I walked/hopped across the warehouse to my Super's office.
