I had my dislocated shoulder reset without morphine or anesthetic. This was after an excruciating bumpy ski ride all the way down the mountain to reach the medical clinic. Second dislocation found me near a hospital so that went much smoother. Then there was the varicocelectomy, a procedure which (as I understand it) involves yanking (temporarily) the testicle out of the scrotum through an incision in the abdomen. As you can imagine, the bruising and discomfort for the next few weeks was intense.
