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?

The result of too many hours in the sun....
Second degree sunburn - and a trip to a burns clinic. Painful as it was funny (my feet swelled to nearly twice their normal size and looked like rotting slabs of ham), nothing compared to the removal of the blisters on my feet. For this, they made use of the most sophisticated modern medicine methods by literally scraping them off with a wet towel like they were burned cheese on an old frying pan. Yowsa, that was sore!
To add insult to injury my wallet and cards got robbed in that shithole of a hostel that is pictured........all in week one of a four month trip. Good start then!
