I had two taken off my back last month - and the first night, just like yours, they both throbbed ALOT!!! I too, am pretty tolerant of pain, and I was surprised at how much they hurt - one was under my bra and it REALLY hurt! I am happy to report that the next day was MUCH better and the day after that was just fine. I think yours is also irritated by the location - so it may take a little longer to feel OK.
I'll have to say though that the scabs didn't come off for about 3 weeks - so while they didn't hurt any longer, the scab was there for a long long time. Don't bother it or pick it off, it is like a bandaid and will help the wound to heal better.
