I've got a real problem knee, having dislocated the joint and ruptured my ACL three times, and I didn't cry with pain, but after years of physio I still can't walk properly. I've broken my hand (for which I'm also still doing physio), my arm and sliced the tip of my right middle finger clean off, right to the bone. I sheared off flesh, fat, nerve, and lost a pint-and-a-half of blood, but I had no idea for a good two or three minutes. That took three months of cutting away scabs and flesh to make sure it healed fully.
Equally, I I was stung by a wasp when I was 9 and cried like a baby; cracked three ribs a few years ago and was in agony, but they healed within six weeks.
Based on my very limited experience, hopefully it's one of those where the pain is much worse than the actual damage.
Get well soon, Ty.
