    I need a "pain scale" list
    Hey I got to weird question...

    I want to know the " pain scale "

    I mean like this > birth is 10 out of 10
    A kick in the nuts is 8 out of 10

    Is there a list of these kind of things or am I just making stuff up?

    As far as I know, there's nothing like that in existence. Mostly because, it's impossible to acurrately gauge pain since our brains don't store the true intensity of the experience for long.

    Maybe there's an average pain scale of lots of opinions... I don't care if its accurate I just need something.
    They say the birth hurts the most... how could they tell ?
    Maybe a broken hurts more ?
    I googled it but found nothing :(

    I honestly just don't think anything like that exists. Maybe you could make one.

    Pain is subjective to each individual. What some find excruciating doesn't even make another flinch.

    I have had 2 children and the pain was bad but not as bad as when I had to have an injection in my index finger to numb it before having a wart burned off.

    I have no way of comparing that pain to a kick in the testicles because I don't have the parts, so I can't really relate.

    Testicle trauma is right up there with birth, but only for a moment.
