I put my back out about twenty or so years ago. It hurt. About a week later I decided to take the day off and see if it would stop hurting. Did some exercises. Still hurt. Laid down on our waterbed. Big mistake. Started having back spasms. Everytime I tried to get myself up, that *&^%$ waterbed wouldn't let me. I believe I came as close as possible for a male to experience what labor might feel like. Could feel the spasms starting to build, and tried to keep still, but they happened anyway, (like someone had hold of my back muscles with pliers and was twisting them). So, eventually, my wife came home, and of course, didn't appreciate just how much pain I was in (as most men feel when their wives are in labor, so it's not just a guy thing). Eventually she gets in touch with the doctor, and the first meds she picks up do nothing. The second batch seems to help enough that I can stand, but it takes all the strength I have. A week or so goes by and the med, Naprosyn, has started my duodenal ulcer bleeding (didn't even know it was there) and I didn't recognize the symptoms, so when I go to the bathroom in the middle of the night, I pass out. I come to with two cops standing there and an ambulance on the way. (While I was unconscious, my wife had been beating on my chest and screaming at me not to die. When I told the doctors I had chest pains they ran all kinds of ekgs on me before she told them what probably caused it. ) They said I lost like 3 or 4 units of blood. Spent almost a week in the hospital while my blood finally refurbished itself. Never had so much fun in my life.

2023-09-19 14:53:21 +0000 UTCI've had a lot of injuries, but the worst pain was the brief, but excruciating nerve hurt I had after my block wore off from a carpel tunnel surgery. Lasted about 4 hours then I was fine, but man did it hurt.

Had to walk about ½ mile with the dead weight of the useless arm suspended by boneless flesh and generally feeling as though I were being continually stabbed with a red-hot poker.

2023-09-19 11:50:30 +0000 UTCI get terrible leg cramps, particularly the sartorius. It feels like it's going to rip itself right out of the bone.
