Gaz_1989 9,539 Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 Not nice fella and no quick remedies that I'm aware of. Done mine twice. Once broken and once just badly bruised and to be honest there wasn't a lot in them, pain wise. They were both agonising for a few weeks. As said above keep active. Don't be tempted to rot in bed regardless of how painful it is. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

johnny boy68 11,725 Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 Start a thread about broken ribs in hope that there's some kind of relief from it but as you've found there isn't. Broken ribs are that bad just looking at a LOL is painful. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mattydski 560 Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 sorry... still in pain 3 years on..... still don't think mine have set properly yet.. I was crushed by cattle against a 5 wire (Barbed) fence.. managed a fractured skull at the same time Take as much medication that your prescription allows and make sure you breath properly..

Tiercel 6,986 Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 I have broken ribs three time to date. They were all different pain wise, I think it's a matter of where on the ribs you actually break or get hit. The second time I broke them was around the back of the ribs, granddaughter leaving her toys on the stairs, stepped on it and my feet went from under me, and ended up hitting my back on the bottom step. The break was close to the spine and to be honest it was nothing like the other twice I broke them. I was off work for two weeks, but after that it was not so bad as long as I took my time.
