IMO the worst feeling is when your finger goes through the toilet paper and you end up going up your own poopy ass. 😖

If we're talking about unpleasant sensations, there's one I get that makes me feel nauseous that I can only describe as being like a smooth grooved surface with unwanted lumps in it and I'm travelling and lurching over it in some unseen dimension. (I've actually met at least one other person who described this without me mentioning it first, so it might be somewhat common. I have no idea.)
I was watching a Let's Play video of a video game the other day and the texture for the water's surface in-game somehow reminded me of it, and it made the video hard to watch.
If we're talking about actual pain, I've had food-related (possibly also medication-related) stomach pain that had me curled in a ball thinking I was going to die and then thinking that might not actually be such a bad idea because then the pain would stop.
I now assume that that must be similar to what some people go through with period cramps. No way I'd want to do that once a month. The handful of times it happened to me was more than enough.
Honourable mention: The weird sting and sensation that isn't actually a smell but is somehow in my nose if I accidentally touch a hidden juvenile thistle in a lawn. Those things are prickly monsters that are just a shade bluer than grass and you often don't see them until you've put your hand on one. Other sharp pains sometimes trigger that "smell" as well. I always associate it with the colour of those thistle leaves though.
They asked for physical pain, so psychosomatic likely doesn't count. Not that they're uninteresting topics or anything....
I used to have similar "pain" from trying to imagine the scale of things. Like when I was a young teen, I'd try to literally visualize what a mile of terrain looked like, or the insanely small scale of molecules, and suddenly I'd lose reference to what 'normal' scale was, and it'd freak me out completely when it felt like the room I was in was both miniscule and insanely vast.
Not really pain, but extreme discomfort that you cannot make go away. There's a term for losing ones' frame of reference for scale, but it escapes me at the moment. Luckily, I got better and better at visualizing things and vast scales stopped triggering what ever that was. Some people have it as a general disability and ohhh boy do I not envy them!
OP's example is having a toilet paper accident and poking their own rectum, which I doubt is the most painful thing in the world and other people are going for the "most painful" interpretation, so I thought I'd cover all bases.
True, they did immediately break their own hypothetical's framework.
