Anyone had their head stapled before? This is my first time to have ever had it stapled (I was hit by a car Sunday I was on a mountain bike just for your info, I was on a crosswalk and the car was going 40mph or more in a 20mph zone.) Anyways does it hurt to get these out more than it does when they put them in?
To be honest, I had 4 staples put in my head back in college. I got attacked outside a bar by 4 people when I was escorting a rather intoxicated young lady home. She got away while I got the crap beat out of me. When I was on the ground getting kicked, some undercover police officers apparently came out of the woodwork and nabbed these guys that were punching and kicking me.
They took me to the hospital, got xrays, cleaned up and bandaged. There was a huge gouge in my head that they couldn't sew shut, so they stapled it closed. It didn't hurt when they put the 4 staples in. When I went in to have them removed, it didn't hurt that much to take them out either to be honest. So don't be worried.
Oh, and when the police drove me home to my dorm room that night after everything was said and done, man I was feeling like crap. I was aching and my pride was a little wounded. I didn't even know that girl very well and I questioned why I even agreed to escort her home when I didn't even do a good job at that. When I got back, she was sitting in the lobby with another friend of hers crying. She thought I was in intensive care or something and was worried. She had sobered up for the most part, and thought I was really brave to hold those morons off while she got away. In the end, I got laid that night and went out with the girl for about a year before she left to go overseas. She is still over in Japan right now and we talk every couple weeks via email.
