Absolutely Most Painful Medical Procedures

[@2001coolchemist]

As a dentist, I stopped watching when you said a dental implant is one of the most painful procedures. Yes it's true that if you aren't anesthetized any dental/medical procedures can carry pain/discomfort. However a dental implant surgery on its own (as graphic as it sounds) is one of the easiest surgeries to numb the patient for, and one of the surgeries associated with the least amount of pain after.

[@msvaj]

I wish what you are saying is true cause I need a few of them done. I hate needles, even at my age, I still cry when I see a needle going into my skin.

[@AstralXen]

@@msvaj Needles don't effect me at all, and I have no reaction to them. Really says something about how different people react to different things.

[@crazydud3380]

Yeah, it wasn't THAT bad. Only slightly worse than a root canal, honestly.

[@Heather-xm9ul]

My husband had a crown snap off for some reason, and he just had an implant in his maxilla. Time between break and completion of the procedure was only 2 months. He was inconvenienced by not being able to blow his nose, but he didn't complain much about the pain. I'm also getting an implant, but it's from a shoddy crown in my lower jaw. The original cracked tooth hurt more than the extraction I got yesterday, and more than when my crown snapped off. (Army dentists aren't very motivated to do high quality work, and we were both army.)

[@Nerraw3134]

@@msvaj what he's saying is true! My father is a dentist (and I was initially studying to become a dentist before changing majors), I have spoken to him at length about several procedures, and I can confirm that what Basal Dabbas is saying is true. As long as you're fully anesthetized you won't feel a thing! Also if you do feel anything at all, let your dentist know and he will give you more anesthetic before proceeding. Hope this helps to make you feel better!

The most painful medical surgery I've had so far is a Liver Transplant, my entire body was so messed up afterward, I couldn't sit up because my abdomen was completely cut open, and it's honestly the worst thing I have ever experienced, it took my body 6 months to stop hurting and even now when I get a pain in my side from running I have flashbacks to being in the hospital bed. This was December 4th, 2017.

[@bobbybrown8613]

abdominal surgies are no joke!

[@austinhernandez2716]

For me, it was getting a piece of my brain cut out, and then waking up to find out my brain was swelling, which is obviously dangerous too. Doctors said it was pretty rare for that to happen. It took over a week for it to go down. The surgery was resumed and it went fine. That's the worst pain I've ever been in though. Edit: If anyone's wondering, I had epilepsy seizures. I had it somewhat under control with high dosage of medication, but when I did have a seizure, it was severe. I had to be revived once. So my neurologist said the best thing to do was find the source and remove it. It was my left temporal lobe. My neurologist said it was pretty much destroyed at that point(former neurologist had done nothing for years). So it was removed, and it cured me from epilepsy. It was in August 2010 when I was 12 years old.

I had a dental implant 2 years ago. I was fully awake with nothing but numbing medicine during the procedure. No pain, no discomfort. After I took 2 advils and that was it. Few days later I was 100% pain free. I consider a dental implant and the recovery to be less than getting stung by a bee (hurts 100x more at the time and swelling can bother you for days).

As a victim of dental neglect when I was a child I have had 7 root canal surgeries as an adult (with more to come). I'm pretty much used to them now and they don't hurt me at all. Except for one time when the anaesthetic wore off during an operation once. There is no pain in the world that I could compare that to. I can't even begin to describe it. It is like every sense your body is capable of was enhanced to the point of sheer agony. It hurt to breathe. It hurt to open my eyes because everything was too bright. Even the quietest of noises sounded like being front row at a death metal concert. I could literally hear the air moving around the room and it was deafening.

[@nightshadehelis9821]

For me it was waking up after having my entire large intestine removed and replaced with an artificial intestine made out of my small intestine called a "j pouch". That was the most rediculous pain I've ever experienced. Not only was my body in shock, but my entire abdominal area was sliced down the middle. You don't realize how often you use your abdominal muscles until they're cut. I had to force myself to walk every single day and it was too much. Not to mention not being able to eat for a week and having a NG tube down my nose.

They called just about every person they could and tried countless machines but it just wouldn’t go in. I’ve NEVER seen my wife is so much pain ever, she was so over the pain that she told the hospital she’d rather be discharged right then and there and go to another hospital to have the baby in another day or so. This was all at John’s Hopkins in Baltimore. They ended up just putting a blood pressure cuff on her and she was just fine.

For #2, you forgot to mention that most lumbar spine surgeries (like mine) are done through an abdominal incision much like a C-section. One surgeon literally holds your guts out of the way for 4 hours while another surgeon literally reaches all the way through you to work on your spine. Insane. And yes, the pain that I woke up to in the recovery room (and what awaited me in the following months) was absolutely unimaginable, from the bone aches to the spontaneous muscle spasms that felt like my abdomen was trying to tear itself open again. Fortunately, I was lucky enough to have an artificial replacement disc instead of a vertebral fusion! I have almost full range-of-motion.

Yep. Mine was a 360°. My abdominal incision was about 8” up & down around my belly button, removed & replaced the discs, fused the vertebrae from the front…, once fused through the front & my guts put back, they flipped me over and cut 3 different incisions along my spine from the back to install the pedicle screws & rods.

Ridiculous. I've had four brain surgeries, more dental surgeries than I can count, gallbladder removed, thrombectomy to remove a pulmonary embolism, bone marrow draw, and some other minor surgeries. Sure there was pain after each, but that's what pain meds are for. The only one that was extremely painful during was the bone marrow draw, and I've certainly had worse pain than that in my life. If you're feeling pain during a surgical procedure, then you and the anesthesiologist need to have a very looooong heart to heart. I actually asked them for more pain killers (aka, fentanyl) during the thrombectomy because I could feel them rummaging around in my chest. At first it was just odd, then it started getting painful. That was the point where I scared the surgeon and asked for more fentanyl. He assumed the twilight anesthesia had put me to sleep.

Not that it compares, I've had several crown implants done. And during each procedure, the anesthesia wasn't enough; there were certain spots in which I could still feel pain. I assumed the anesthesia couldn't be any stronger than this, so I would have to endure. Which I did. But one event later, they drilled a tooth in which a nerve seemed unaffected by the anesthesia, and the pain I felt was excruciating. That's when I told the hygienist about the pain and immediately thereafter, they gave me more anesthesia and we were able to resume the procedure with no pain. It took over two hours to get it done. The moral of the story is, Don't be an idiot like me. Whenever you feel any pain or sensitivity while a dentist operates your mouth, immediately tell them about it and get more novacain! There is no shame in that. Enduring when you don't have to is unnecessarily taxing for the body and the brain. Be smart unlike me.

When I was 17, I had corrective jaw surgery to correct an underbite. The surgeon broke my upper and lower jaw and chin and reconstructed it with titanium screws. I woke up to morphine and feeling no initial pain. When it wore off, I can’t tell you how painful my face was. It was unimaginable. My face was swollen like a football, wrapped up with my jaw shut wired shut. On top of that, I was wearing braces. I had to relearn how to swallow and say certain words. Initially I couldn’t swallow. I started to freak out a little bit. The surgeon came in and said “well, we’re going to have to put you back in surgery since you’re not able to swallow.” I was scared shitless to go back into surgery. Within a minute I swallowed some water. It took two years to full recover from pain/tingling sensations and numbness. I’m so thankful to have a great, knowledgeable, competent UCLA surgeon. He changed my life.

A stone lodged it's way into my pancreas' tube opening, and I ended up on 30 straight hours of antibiotics before I could have surgery 2 days later. The pain from the stones and the infection itself was excruciating. So when I woke up from the surgery, sure, I hurt, but the pain was so much better.

[@thehangmansdaughter1120]

I've had a number of these procedures. My first spinal tap was pretty bad, I was just 15 and the needle both scraped the bone and tore the surface of a disk. A surgical infection after my hysterectomy was nasty, coming on the heels of an emergency C-Section for twins. The most painful thing was a massive build up of fluid behind that C-Section wound, where a mistake was made and the fluid was simply pressed out through the surgical wound, without anesthesia.

[@pamelajackson69]

I've had so many medical procedures in my life that I already knew that I have a very high threshold for pain but after watching this, it must be higher than I even thought it was. I've had 4 of these procedures and didn't find any of them to be excruciating as the video would suggest. I've had 2 spinal fusions (cervical and lumbar), multiple lumbar punctures (epidural steroid injections are far more painful but still not that bad), gone through childbirth and had my Gallbladder removed back in the day (1989) when they had to cut you all the way across your belly- 8 inch scar. I've also had sinus surgery which was horribly unpleasant and painful but nothing I couldn't handle. I've been hit by a car which shattered my nose (separate surgery to reset it), broke my ankle and my collarbone. By far the worst pain I've ever experienced was Pancreatitis as a result of gallstones, which is why I had my Gallbladder removed. I was in so much pain and so close to death that they had to put me in a medically induced coma for a week before they could do my Gallbladder surgery. I've never experienced anything remotely close to the pain it caused. Next day after the Gallbladder surgery I actually went to the salon and got a perm in my hair

Depends on the reason for the hip replacement! A lot of people find it very painful and a revision of a hip replacement (for example due to damage from a metal on metal hip) was excruciating and took even longer to recover. I am really glad that yours was OK! I completely agree that it wasn't my most painful orthopaedic procedure- that was when they cut both hips up and bolted them back together like a jigsaw

[@littlewing6231]

My hip replacement in July was easy peasy. Prior to it it was misdiagnosed as me needing a third back surgery from my CT Mylogram. It may need operated but is painless so duh!!! I begged the VA to look at my hip. I was on a four wheel cart to get around. The last 4 months I fell 3 times and sat on the edge of my bed 24/7. I finally gave up and went to see my back surgeon. He saw me struggling to walk in the building and without missing a beat had the nurse get an x-ray of my hip. Boy was I hot!! It was fractured and being miserable for 10 months showed signs of healing then refracturing from falls from having a fractured hip and walking/ limping bent over on that cart and losing my balance. Standing up from the toilet was so bad I pulled the sink just to the left of me outta the wall a little at a time over 10 months. Bone spurs that were jabbing at nerves and surgery 5 days later. Easiest recovery I ever had from about 14 surgeries I’ve had. I’m 57. 3 back surgeries,2 shoulder, 2 hernia with mesh, sinus, rhinoplasty on my nose,tonsils and knee replacement 2 months after the hip this October. The back surgeries were tough but my knee replacement was brutal. 6 weeks of horrible post op pain.

I can confirm that a spinal fusion is really painful.. I‘m 26 and have already 9 vertebraes fused, from C0 (the back of the skull) until my second thoracic vertebrae. The days after the surgery were incredible painful. I was on Fentanyl, Ketamine and Methadone and still had pain when I had to stand up. Even now, 6 months later, it’s quite painful from time to time. The vertebraes lost their function, so the muscles are angry. 😅

Having fibroids removed doesn't hurt at all if you have endometriosis! I had one so big, that ultrasound techs usually ask if I've had a c-section. Nope, just that fibroid removal! The part that hurt about that recovery was the bloating, but that didn't last more than a couple of days.

It's a procedure during which they are burned with electricity. They were quite tender and painful already, so the pain started right at the beginning, when dermatologist injected anesthetic directly into every single one of them (I had like 5 or 6). Then, she started burning them (spoiler alert: anesthetic didn't keep all the pain away). It was the only medical procedure in my life that left me literally shaking from pain.
