Narrative:
This a/C (aircraft) had been in maintenance prior to us getting this a/C. They said it was for a pressurization problem. We boarded the a/C and flew to ZZZ. We taxied in; arriving at the gate; the captain gave me the signal to open the a/C door by turning off the seat belt sign. I got out of my seat belt stowed my jump seat. Unlocked the door and tried to push it open it seemed like it was stuck (we have a few a/C that the door is hard to push open) so I pushed even harder when it finally started to open I could hear this sucking sound coming in around the door. I knew then that I was going to be sucked out the door. I was trying to grab onto anything my hands could find; which was the wall next to me and try to scramble backward with my feet as not to be sucked out. I open the flight deck door and asked the captain what's going on; I was almost sucked out of the a/C. He checked the gauges and said (oh god) the plane didn't depressurize; I'm sorry are you okay? I told him I hurt my arm.
