I don't have any pain in my lucids, just regular dreams.
One time I tried to pick up a bus by using telekinesis, but it fell on top of me after about 20 feet :(
I don't remember it hurting though. So I guess I don't feel pain in dreams either...
Not much pain for me in lucids. The few times I've fallen were abrupt thumps toward a soft ground. But I still fear those horizontal "car crash" falls, even in lucids. Those are always the worst. Luckily, I have yet to have a car crash fall.
A some kind of animal bit me.. Well it didn't feel so bad. :P
when a nasty green insect bit my leg....arggh!!!
Hmmm,
I generally find pain in dreams to be much more dull and less intrusive then waking pain. Its usually more a dull ache. Still, there's been a few exceptions to that in my dreams.
One of the more memorable ones was when I was still experimenting with walking through walls. Only rather then try to walk through a wall I tried to walk through a glass door, and made the mistake of focussing far too much on the glass. The experience felt a little like being pierced by a thousand glass needles at once. Pretty sure I woke up at that point.
Never did let it stop me though. For some reason even pain in dreams is an interesting experience to me (unlike pain while awake! Perhaps it has to do with the fact that we know there's no real damage, hence no cause for alarm). Not something I'd repreat, but not something I'd let scare me into not trying again neither. These days I'm happily walking through windows, glass doors and walls all the time :)

i crashed a car in a lucid once. and it threw out my neck really bad.
as for recent lucids, i got poked with some thorns from a rose bush. Dumb thing.
Whether i feelpain in my lucids depends on how vivid the dream is, and mine are usually pretty vivid.
I had a painful feeling in my arm before... and when I held it up to a mirror (in my LD) there was nothing there past the elbow. :( Still didn't feel too concerned in my dream. When I woke up my arm was in an uncomfortable position which probably led to some bad cirrculation causing the pain or numbness to seep into my dream.
I jumped off a balcony, hoping to fly at the last second. It didn't work. Instead of pain, though, I felt a strange tingling sensation where my body struck the pavement.
I did EXACTLY the same thing two nights ago xDDD;Quote:

When I was about six I was afraid of my dreams and every time I became lucid I would do something to wake me up. Usually jumping off of tall buildings. The worst pain I felt was allowing myself to be eaten by tasmanian devils. In a non-lucid I had an old man crush my spine once. That was very painful.
In my recent lucid dream (turns out waking up at 5:00 and going back to sleep is a good technique but I can't remember what it was called) I was taking rapid seed/poison dart fire from evil plant creatures in my X-3 Space Shuttle's cargo bay. I couldn't tell if it was pain I was feeling or numbing of the shoulder area. (I don't like to let my thoughts harm myself) But then I just realized it was a dream, and set them all ablaze with a snap from my fingers. That'll teach them to mess with the S-man!
Not being able to lucid is the worst. Even though I was awake. :( Its sad.
The most I've felt in dreamland is a pressure. Never pain. That's cool though because you can worry even less about the consequences of what you do. :D

And i thought jumping out my bedroom window was bad. Did you feel any pain?Quote:

How exactly can one experience pleasure in their dreams but not pain? It doesn't make any sense.
That's a good question.
I don't remember feeling pain in any lucid dreams, though I've felt pressure and known I was under attack.
I think it might be just because I didn't WANT to experience pain.
A task I suggested a while back but wasn't able to accomplish myself brought interesting results. It was to walk through fire. Many reported that it was a painful thing to do. That was six months back or so - it would be worth digging back in the task forum for the reports.
I had a really vivid non-lucid one time in which I stumbled backward and skewered the base of my skull on a long metal spike. I felt what it was like to die in my dream. Weird! It felt like seering cold shooting through me.
Some world I was in had a sun that burned my skin - had to stick to the shadows. I was lucid but surpirsed at the vivid burning sensation of my skin
