What injuries are more painful than people would think?

I would say headaches if you have never had one before.

I've done this before & the pain was pretty bad. I ended up with a lot of bruises all over my back & legs but with the speed I went down at I was amazed I wasn't more seriously injured.

Until I had it happen to me, i had no idea how debilitating it could be , you don't think about how much you lean on or move the area, i was lucky and it was my top rib, i know lower ones are much worse.

Bites on the nose from a meerkat. :mad2:

How?!

How?!

An idiot living in a large and very noisy riverside apartment complex decided to flout the no pets rule by keeping pet meerkats.
One meerkat escaped its home, got into my friend's apartment and bit my nose in a panic that was probably triggered by loud planes flying overhead.
Years later, I have to wear layers of makeup to cover both the scars and the injuries that are still not fully healed.
I'm no fan of those talking meerkat comparethemarket adverts. :grumble:

I didn't know you could legally own a pet meerkat.

Please don't buy any meerkats.
Or a pet savannah.
British legislation focuses too much on dogs, almost totally ignoring the exotic animals that have only become popular in Britain post 2005.
Toothache/abscess (only putting because some people have never had toothache).

I've heard of people pulling their own teeth out themselves because the pain was so bad. 😐

Edit: just realised this is not an injury 😑😑 fml. Ehh ill leave it in anyway, as a reminder to brush your teeth and visit the dentist! (after lockdown)

Tearing cartilage in your leg.
Ive broken multiple bones, fallen from 12 feet up out of trees, etc. but that one injury hurt more than all of them combined. I had to go to PT for a good while too :frown:
Can’t believe no one said this yet but teeth....
