Ouch!A friend was once given a biopsy by a sleep-deprived junior doctor.
They needed a sample of his colon, so inserted the long bendy jaws-on-the-end thingy, located the suspect area and... he shot through the ceiling. Doctor had forgotten to administer any anaesthetic.
What was your ouchiest moment?

If you get to choose between a local or a general anesthetic...take the general.
I'll never forget my first local.
Lying on my back staring at the ceiling as I had been firmly told "whatever you do, don't look down..."
What surprised me the most was the fact that, although you don't feel pain, you still feel everything else. I distinctly recall the sensation of my own flesh being cut, and the sound of the scissors cutting through it.
So, not exactly "ouch" - just everything but the ouch.
