Top Ten Most Painful But Non-Serious Injuries

The Top Ten
1 Stub Toe

I stub my toes often, but one day I tripped and kicked the ground incredibly hard. I was in severe pain for weeks...

When I was in junior high, this happened way too often at night. Good lord! This hurts a lot.

It's funny when you stub your toes because you always do that messed-up dance while dragging the foot you hit and sort of hum a tune to take your mind off the pain. Laugh out loud.

2 Paper Cut

The paper constantly cutting you seems to hurt more than the aftermath, but if just a paper cut hurts, then imagine spilling a beaker of hydrochloric acid on it. That's what a sting from a red wasp is described as.

Ok, seriously, this is by far the worst. In high school, I once dropped all of my notebooks and binders all over me and got some of the largest paper cuts! So painful.

Pretty painful. But though it isn't serious, this should be number one!

3 Bite Tongue

This hurts! Hey Tongue, stay out of my teeth bite line. I'd like to not swallow blood, thank you!

This has to be the worst because one minute you're enjoying your sandwich, and the next...

I hate this as much as the paper cut, but this happens more often than the latter.

4 Step on a Lego

It really hurts when you're barefoot!

5 Catch Finger In Door

I just recently did this. It created a deep cut on my ring finger. Getting your finger slammed into a door hurts, but it shouldn't be serious unless it gets infected.

6 Something Cold On Your Teeth

Is this like trying to bite on a hard popsicle?

7 Stung by a Bee

I got stung by a bee 7 times in my life. I thought it was painful at the time, but after learning about the Tarantula Hawk, Bullet Ant, Japanese Giant Hornet, and the Executioner Wasp, the bee sting feels like a walk in the park.

That's nothing, other than how dangerous it might be. The pain isn't too bad, but if you're allergic, you could go down with nasty symptoms, like really big welts and possibly fainting.

8 Hit In the Balls

Absolutely terrible. One minute you are playing a nice game of soccer, and the next minute you lose the will to live.

It's the worst feeling in the world! It almost makes you throw up! You feel like passing out.

Your balls are the softest spot in your body. It hurts, and I know because people have done it to me multiple times.

9 Sprain Ankle

Yes, it IS bloody painful when it happens - that's the point of this top ten - but it's not a SERIOUS injury. You won't die from it.

This really sucks. It's awfully painful.

10 Hit Funny Bone

I almost start crying because I think it hurts, but then I feel silly afterward!

I hate this so much! I think it's the worst feeling in the world.

A sickening pain, and funny for others.

The Contenders
11 Soap in Eyes
12 Needle Under Fingernails
13 Hit Head On Low Ceiling

I do this almost every month, and it hurts!

14 Water in Your Nose

This has happened to me a lot, and it is horrible. It's a really bad feeling in general.

I don't know why, but I like how the sensation triggers the urge to sneeze.

Personally, I don't find it painful, but rather unpleasant.

15 2nd Degree Burns

It's the worst physical pain I've ever been through. I'm surprised this isn't higher on the list, given how excruciating 2nd-degree burns are, especially superficial ones.

16 Bite Lip
17 Get a Splinter
18 Scooter Into the Ankle

My sister fell on her ankle with a scooter when she started college. She was crying in pain. Those things are dangerous.

19 Swallow Ice Cube
20 A Poke In the Eye

I'm always doing this. The pain is crazy.

21 Hit Knee On Door Edge

The time I did this, I threw an armful of hardback books across the room in temper. The bruise and bump lasted for ages!

In my opinion, hitting your knee is more painful than hitting your funny bone.

22 Hangnail

They hurt badly. I have about three cuts from hangnails on my fingers right now.

23 Scratch Your Throat After Swallowing a Crisp
24 Punched In the Face

Take it from me, it does not feel good, and blood does not taste good.

25 Cat Scratch

Let me share a story. When I was around five, my cat was trying to protect her kitten (who was stuck in the kennel with the dog) from my dog, and my arm got in the way. Blood ran straight down my arm from my wrist all the way to my shoulder. My family was outside playing in the pasture, but they came back in around 4-5 minutes.

My twin was the first to see this scene. You should have seen how fast she ran outside to get my parents. Everyone sprinted inside (this was nighttime). My mom got the bandages and other things to help with my scratch. I remember crying so hard that my siblings had to comfort me. It healed in a week or so, but I will never be able to forget it.
