Stinkers Bridge will testify that I was in a great deal of pain when I broke my arm in 2001. As it broke at the top it was unable to be plastered and had to just hang there coloured black, blue and purple in one of those foam slings for 8 weeks.

For 6 of those weeks the pain was so immense that I had to go to the pub from 12 til 6 everyday and desensitise myself with prescription stella. Mr Bridge was regularly pressed into action to collect me and drive me home and sometimes the pain made me quite emotional 'And I made statements such as 'youre my best mate' and 'Come on then, i ll take you on one handed!'.

For weeks 7 and 8 I had to drive one handed to Eastbourne to go to work as my sick pay had stopped. The experience of going cold turkey from the stella withdrawal was almost as painful as the orginal wound.

I think it was when my wife was giving birth to our first child (about 18 hours into the labour)... she squeezed my fingers quite hard.

Starts in my lower back and goes through my hips, across my lower stomach, through my groins and into my bollox. My thigh muscles are numb and the rest of my legs are just weak. They told me it was coming from the disc's in my lower back and even talked of removing one but now they've changed they're minds and said the disc's are not that bad. Now they hav'nt got a clue whats causing it even after giving me every scan you can think of. I'm in hospital tomorrow so they can give me injections in some nerves in my lower back to see if that will aleviate some of the pain.

Sounds like nerve pain - i think the injections will work, if that helps!! I'm surprised they changed their mind about the discs though.

I hope the injections help BAG, At the moment i'm taking morphine sulphate, tramadol, co-dydramol and pregabalin and they're not touching the pain.

You poor thing - that much would knock me out! It does sound like an injection to the nerves would help. Have they done a lumbar puncture yet?

a few candidates including broken pelvis but I think the winner was the pain generated when trying to have a large dump whilst in possession of a bulbous perianal ulcer... ouch :cry:

That was great... as a 17yo(?) being told by the ambulance driver to follow him to the hospital... not sure he quite meant keep right on his tail when he put on his blue lights and two-tones through Brighton town centre, but I didn't need any encouragement to try (in mums 1100 Ford Fiesta!). Happy days :D

Thats what I thought until I had a nice meal with a couple of pints to start, bottle of cheeky red with the meal of Liver followed by a malt whiskey.

As I hobbled in for a prescription the next day the doctor asked why I ddin't save myself some money and just stab my foot.

Told you as soon as you mention gout people come out of the closet

Playing a match at Liverpool [Aigburth], I took a catch at silly point, straight out of the middle. There was a delayed reaction, as I threw the ball in the air in celebration, then realised before it came back down that something was wrong.

I went off to strap up the crooked finger then when I came back out, told the captain that I'd be okay, but I'd have to do fine leg to fine leg for the rest of the innings, so I wouldn't get anything in the air.

Of course, TWO BALLS later the fella top-edges a bouncer straight down my throat. It was in the air for what seemed like hours as I stood under it debating the best course of action. Bravado won out over self-preservation and I took the catch, gently rolled the ball back toward the middle, then turned round and threw up outside the boundary rope! [Chucking up on the outfield just wouldn't have been cricket].

Probably the time I broke three of my toes kicking a weight used to hold a badminton net up, by accident. At the same incident managed to snap an ankle ligament too so they wanted to put it into a cast.

Two of the breaks were compound and as they put my whole lower leg in plaster they had to stabilise the foot by pushing the toes back. Remember being on nitrous oxide but still in f*** loads of pain.

What is gout?

Put simply

The classic picture is of excruciating, sudden, unexpected, burning pain, swelling, redness, warmness and stiffness in the joint. Low-grade fever may also be present. The patient usually suffers from two sources of pain. The crystals inside the joint cause intense pain whenever the affected area is moved. The inflammation of the tissues around the joint also causes the skin to be swollen, tender and sore if it is even slightly touched. For example, a blanket or even the lightest sheet draping over the affected area could cause extreme pain.

Gout usually attacks the big toe (approximately 75 percent of first attacks); however, it also can affect other joints such as the ankle, heel, instep, knee, wrist, elbow, fingers, and spine. In some cases, the condition may appear in the joints of small toes that have become immobile due to impact injury earlier in life, causing poor blood circulation that leads to gout.

Patients with longstanding hyperuricemia (see below) can have uric acid crystal deposits called tophi (singular: tophus) in other tissues such as the helix of the ear. Uric acid stones can form as one kind of kidney stone in some cases.

What is gout?

Gout (also called metabolic arthritis) is a disease created by a buildup of uric acid. In this condition, monosodium urate or uric acid crystals are deposited on the articular cartilage of joints, tendons and surrounding tissues due to elevated concentrations of uric acid in the blood stream. This provokes an inflammatory reaction of these tissues.
