    “That pain was worse than childbirth.”

    First time I have heard that as pain classification in an article.

      That’s just a quote from the woman speaking about her experience. I’ve personally heard often about childbirth as potentially causing incredibly intense pain.

        Pain during childbirth is claimed by the Bible to be a literal curse from God in Genesis 3:16, so, yeah, I’d reckon that it’d be hard to top that!

      I’m a dentist. I hear it all the time. Its a good comparison for, often, the worst pain someone has experienced.
