Caporegime
I managed to trip over a kerb last night and have bruised/cracked my ribs. I can just about sit upright without feeling it too much but getting up/down is excruciating and I can't lie down at all. How the **** I'm going to get any sleep in the new few weeks I don't know. I'm feeling delirious just from staying up one night already.
Sorry to hear that!
I once cracked two ribs by coughing. Seriously.
I had a really violent coughing fit and had pain in my ribs afterwards, I went to see the doctor after it didn't get better overnight, went to the hospital for a walk in x-ray, two fractured ribs!!
Apparently it can happen, I couldn't believe it! Was in pain for a few weeks.
