What's the one injury that bothers you no matter what?

Published

We all have that one injury we see that just bothers us. We can see so many different things yet there's one that is over the top. For me it's nails. My left nail was pulled up on my thumb yet not all the way to displace it. Gross.

I'm ready to vomit from reading these :barf02:, yet I can't look away!

OMG...I had a 4th degree tear! Was in the hospital for induction, had the drip running the night before, 14 hours later, sudden effacement and labour. Doctor wasn't in the room because they didn't expect true labour for awhile. I was hollering for someone to come, and trying to keep my legs crossed. I would not have believed it if it hadn't happened to me, but I had zero control over the birth. Next thing I know, people are running in, and the doctor is feverishly stitching me up. MAJOR SITZ baths for weeks...

Burns. Can't stand the smell, the weeping wounds, the evident pain and the debriding.
