I had a dental implant once. Now I'm glad they completely sedated me before they started, because I never noticed anything until it was all finished

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.

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.

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).

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 have never in my life heard of someone undergoing liposuction being awake, and I have worked in medicine for 40 years. I have also had liposuction and it is incredibly painful but you are put to sleep every time or else you risk going into shock. Please stop spreading ridiculous medical misinformation. Every topic mentioned is in fact very incorrect and aimed to frighten people more than the reality of the procedure.

As an Ob/Gyn RN, myomectomies are 9 times out of 10 done vaginally, not laporoscopically

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.

I have dental implants and the most painful part is getting the shot to numb it beforehand. Tylenol handled the pain afterwards easily.

[AceKILLALasers]

I had gallstones for 6 years before removal. The pain after was bad but knowing that I wouldnt feel the pain from a gallstone attack ever again..made it all worth it. anyone who suffered a gallstone knows what im talking about!

[nightshadehelis]

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.

The worst pain I have ever been through was reconstructive sinus surgery. They had to break multiple places in my face to fix damage that healed wrong. They used a laser to cauterize my sinuses. I was coughing burnt flesh for weeks. Throwing up burned flesh is by far the nastiest experience I have had.

Most painful thing I’ve had happen was an ingrown toenail removed. Normally, doctors put a numbing thing on it, but the first time I got it removed, he didn’t put it on, so the inch long needle going into my toe hurt

[luckyarmywife]

My husband got a dental implant through the military. Everything that could go wrong, went wrong. I had to watch him suffer for over a year. It was awful. He is better now.

As a Nursing School student, I find this to be absolutely fascinating. Thanks for the upload Infographics!

[joeltraut]

As a skin graft patient I can attest to the cleaning of the part where the skin came from. That is incredibly painful. I have a pain tolerance but even I was screaming and convulsing when the gore plaster comes off.

[Burnt_Pancakes]

I had #4 happen to me. I had to get a lot of my small intestine, a little of my large intestine and the ileocecal valve removed. It hurt, but I definitely wasn't screaming my lungs out like the characters in this video were. Everyone watching this who is terrified some of these might happen to them, it'll be fine if it does. It hurts but it won't be anything like is shown here

When I was in the hospital back in 2018 for a diabetic coma, the did at least 15 abg tests on me, and let me tell you, that was the worst pain I've ever felt. Definitely deserved it's place on this list

[wanibenedith]

I can go through the torture videos and feel fine after, but there’s something different about this one that makes me have to pause and compose myself. I don’t know what it is lol.

I had to have arterial blood draws twice. The first time I didn't even know that the draw had been done. The second time the person doing the draw had to attempt several times. But he did such a great job that I didn't have much additional pain (maybe the pain from advanced fibromyalgia and arthritis has made me too used to extreme pain!)
