wizard owl Yes I got 5 days pain killers and that's it. It has been 10 days now and the pain is not as bad but don't cough or laugh because it still can be excruciating pain. I find that after I eat I get phlegm in my throat and I need to cough it up. I never want to go through this again.
I have almost sneezed 3 or 4 times in the last 2 days and my body literally stops the sneeze after feeling the impending doom. It literally just stops it.
I got in a car accident and bruised my sternum a week and a half ago. I’m feeling the same pain rn… I do my best not to cough or sneeze. Sneezing’s the worst. It makes my sternum feel like it’s been cut in half for a good 2-5 minutes. 😢
I’ve been there 3 different times with bruised ribs, still went to work and took no pills As my boss called me (after smacking my hip on the cement after a hard fall off of my kick scooter) he called me the human video game character cause I just bounce back up after a hard fall
I get bruised ribs easily and often (once every 2-5 years since my teens), and it follows a predictable progression. A day or so after the incident, pain starts to increase, and continues to increase for 1-2 weeks. In that time, the pain in the rib also goes to the opposite side - injury in front, which is almost all of the cases, also creates pain in the back, so now both front ant back of the rib hurts. This then proceeds with the same level of pain for another 2-3 weeks, then the last week the pain gradually goes away. I have endured this some 10-15 times since my teens, and I am a person that sits on a chair most of the time. One incident was trying on surfing, and got injured while lying flat on my belly on the surfboard (bodyweight pressure), paddling out. Other incidents include go-carting (edge of seat cutting into ribs), falling on icy street, play-fighting. I know it for what is is when it happens, and that I can look forward to 6 weeks of pain and sleep difficulties. Why is this so?
I felt flat on the ground my chest a week ago - I actually heard the crunch inside my chest/sternum when I hit he ground (my chin also hit hard). Your comment helps because now on the 5th and 6th day I feel worse than the first few days. Why is that?
***** No advice, nothing to do but let time pass. I always had trouble sleeping because I could not move in bed without sharp pains, for 4-5 weeks. X-rays revealed nothing broken.
I also bumped my chest on the surfboard 6 days ago. I can bear the pain the past days but today was the hardest. It is more painful and annoying. I can now experience pain every breath and even when laughing or coughing. Pain at the other side of the bumped area hurts when I move my shoulder and certain sleeping positions give both the front and back an annoying pain. That's why I just lie my back when sleeping. I pray to God there is no serious injury that happened to me. For my fast recovery to get back to my normal active life.
Reading these comments makes me feel better! I bruised my ribs about a week ago, and they still hurt - hiccups and burps are the worst! Just tried to work out at the gym - probably a dumb move. :(
I fell from my attic through the ceiling straight down to the kitchen tile 2 weeks ago, 12 feet. I don't remember the fall and only woke up to the fire, police and medical personals putting me on a stretcher. The amazing thing is that I only had a bruised rib on the right side and pain in arms no broken bone. The weird thing is also is that when I was getting the CT scan a verse from the Bible popped up for me and my mom who was praying for me got the same verse. Psalms 34: 19 Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the Lord delivereth him out of them all. 20 He keepeth all his bones: not one of them is broken. Out of all the outcome I could have received, I had the 4 percent best fall. It could have ended in death or paralysis. I still have pain on my right side but can move and walk without that much problem.
Lots of useful information. Great delivery. I have a question, though. I watched this clip twice, but I haven't learned/understood what a bruised rib actually is. What does it mean to bruise a rib? This confusion on my part led me to many relayed questions: a bruised rib isn't the condition where a rib separates or dislocates from something described here as a sheet of cartilage in the front of the rib cage, right? It's not a fracture or brake of a rib along the side bend of the rib, either, right? So is a bruised rib means it got hit hard, maybe dented(?) without fracture or breaking off? Why would hitting the bone there hurt anyway? Does the bone have nerves in it and feel pain? Or is the pain from damage to some type of soft tissue at, attached to, or around the rib? Does a bruised rib have marrow in it that gets compressed and thereby damages the integrity of the bone? I know, too many questions, but just trying to understand the concept of a bruise on a rib.
Two ways that cures my rib pain: 1) Chop 2 or 3 pieces of fresh garlic and with a glass of water swallow it like the way to take tablets. Do this twice a day you’ll see a great improvement! Trust me it works! I have been going through this rib pain without fractures after a fall I recently had. So I know what I am talking about. Plus this I also do the next. 2) Heat some water from your stovetop; pour it in a small bucket or in a box( whatever you please to use) Fold and Soak a small towel in the hot water ( not a kind of hot water that will burn your skin) squeeze the water out the towel with both of your hands and put the hot towel on the affected area press little bit on it for 30 to 50 second so that the heat from the towel will enter that particular area to heal you! Repeat this until you feel that there’s no more heat in the water. Also do this twice a day. I suggest you have someone that you trust to do this kind of massage for you while you Peacefully lay yourself down. You will feel amazing! These are some amazing remedies! Do both until you are pain free.
It´s hard to get air in with my 3 broken ribs (fell from a horse on my arm, my arm broke my ribs) A trick I found is to fill my lungs as much as I can, then hold my breath, take a mouthful of air, pass it to the lungs and repeat. This way you can get to the full inhalation that you are used to.
Same I cant get up laugh or take deep breaths and my back hurts I cant up and its hurting in the middle of my ribs and under my right boob I'm contemplating whether or not I should call a family member I cant fucking get up 😩
Took a spill on my bike that had me land on my right side. Felt a small "pop" when I landed. Thankfully I didn't break my wrist as that is my dominant hand. But the pain in my chest feels like a bruised rib or maybe even a fracture. I can still breathe deeply, albeit with minor pain and discomfort. Thankfully, I'm not having a shortness of breath. Getting out of bed after laying flat, sneezing, and coughing certain ways hurt like hell though. ESPECIALLY when I sneeze. Good lord that's the worst. Pain is focused around my side, some in right breast area. This sucks
I did exactly the same thing landing on the same side on the brake lever or stem and then the road when the front wheel hit a pot hole last week and I’ve been in bed almost a week and only walking around for the first time today after five days. The paramedics thought I’d punctured a lung when the ambulance first arrived I was in so much pain ( and I have fractured ribs numerous times before) and immobile leaning against a tree almost pissing my pants.
I fell of bike as well 20 days ago, I crashed my ribs into the handlebar, I'm feeling a horrible pain still, even after going to the hospital 3 times and taking painkillers, my question is, how long you tookto get rid of the pain?
I did the same thing this past weekend. Crashed and fell so odd and my bar and elbow jammed into my left ribs. Still hurts but can move my arms and breathing is good but much discomfort. Pain between a 1 and 4.
In complete misery over here. Took a fall 4 days ago and injured my ribs (left side) and I’ve been unable to find any comfort ever since. I’ve been prescribed some pain medication, muscle relaxers, and lidocaine patches, but they haven’t helped much. I’ve only found minimal relief when I use all three medications at the same time and I’m a mother....I’m not able to take care of my family while taking them. Ice and hot baths with epsom salt are basically all I can do. Really hoping this heals quickly. How incredibly painful!
I was only tickling my 2 year old son when I bent over the arm of the couch and heard the crack, now it only hurts when I bend or breathe or reach or sneeze. Still, it IS marginally better than when I threw my back out and felt like crying every time I had to get up for the bathroom, it may hurt to sit up, but I don't need to take 10 minutes to plan out how I am going to get to a standing position and walk 20 feet, so that's a plus!
This is the worst pain I've ever had....surfing and then.....SMACK into the rocks, when you try lying down to go to sleep it feels like you're being stabbed 100 times in 30 seconds. 3rd day now. Let's hope for a quick heal.
This is my first time enjoying your UA-cam channel. Great work! I’m looking forward to more great content from you. Thank you so much for this informative video! I got so much out of it.
Ik this isn't about ribs, but there is this mussle or something on both sides of my bellybutton, and it feels like it is being pulled. My rib is also bruised but it is not that big of a deal rn. Everytime i try to get up after lying down these mussles hurt.
I was coughing a lot had influenza when suddenly developed this pain in my rib I’m too lazy to go to the doctors but when I lay down my right ribs hurt it’s horrible
I got a door smashed in my face , bruised eye and fell into the side of the bath and bruised my rib and sat in the wet paint bucket was painful and embarrassing.
He’s got a nice voice and thank you for the help I ate it after flipping off my bike and got a sprain, bruised rib, tons of cuts, deep skin wounds... (bike has special aluminum frame and rust...)😐🤦♂️😢👍
I have a pulled muscle in my upper left rib down behind my armpit as its more in rib on my side. It only hurts when i move a certain way. Its in such a weird area that its difficult to massage it or apply ice and heat
my right side rib hurts after laying on one side but when I sit up straight it hurts or when I move it hurts I tried to stretch and drink water but it doesn't help!!! help it hurts 😩😭😩😰
i smacked my ribs on a metal ledge 2 weeks ago, then again on the same spot on a metal rail a week ago, it hurts to sit up, laugh, cough, sneeze, do drops, or not land on my board perfectly, and even when i do, it still is painful
I'm here because I injured my lower-right rib when I made a sudden lateral move to my right to adjust something, but forgot that I was wearing a tight, wide powerlifting belt. I have trouble with sleep positions and I can't do abs exercises. Any ideas what the damage might be?
my bruise is faiding to light brown or.skill colour but still some minor pain and pressure is there.Any idea how long it will recover it has been 18 days
I fell off an upright arm chair 2 days ago, and fell hard on my left side. The wooden chair trapped me, as it fell with me, against a hard wooden cupboard. Since then, I have been getting moderate pain, especially when I cough, and I can fell a clicking sensation just front of the armpit. Anyone know what I have done? Is it a fracture? or even a broken rib or bone near my left shoulder?
I was hurt on the front right rib it’s not fracture it’s so pain may be cause of soft tissue resulting which my back rib hurt just below the shoulder I don’t know what to do it’s lockdown months
scratchy4josh what did you do to pop it? what you mean it was worth going? i acually have rip out of place beacause of car accident, 3 weeks before now
i feel a slight and pain in my costal cartilage after bumping into a mini fridge that Gave me a cartilage dent accidentally but i don’t have shortness of breath and i want to know if the dent costal cartilage will regenerate back or just heal as it is and the pain goes away
I broke a rib by coughing too hard. Yep. I had the worst flu ever for a month. Turning in bed turned out to be impossible. Coughing or sneezing had to be done with me pressing against my side, so the pain was bearable. I had to roll out of my bed for months with my arm pressed tightly against my ribs because I couldn't use my abdominal muscles. Breathing too deeply hurt like a bitch. The pain was like a sharp stab of a knife in a very specific place on my side.
Idk what the hell I have it's not pain it'a some weird airy bubble feeling on my left rib area it's not ling damage like bones and muscle lkke imbalanxe or what what stretch i do
I can't even breathe now without the feeling of a very sharp pain. It's on my right side, under my breast. (I know a little TMI) But I wonder if this could be a broken rib or just a bruise?
I flipped my truck several times 2 days ago. I walked away from the accident and after they checked me for internal injuries and broken bones they released me and told me to follow up with doctor on monday. first day I was full of adrenaline and didn't have much pain, yesterday I was just sore all over but still felt OK considering what happened but today hours after I had already woke up an moved around a bit my ribs or shoulder started to hurt now I can't even laugh or cough without a cramping type pain expecially near back shoulder blade. Tried a back massager thing but I think it made it worse or didn't really help and took a pain pill and ibuprofen. I noticed that putting ice on does help though.
I put ice on it I didn’t do anything else and I’ve been having this pain in my ribs for about two or three days now I think I might’ve torn it or something because I was doing a backbend could that Cause it
Walking the dog, right legstepped onto pavement that crumbled into a sandy sinkhole, whole body pitched forward and fell, right hand braced fall, bruised badly, left temple hit the pavement and black eye ensued, also a sharp pain in left lower ribcage getting progressively more painful 5 days in,
Doctor and he ask me to do x-ray in prescription and he mention right lower ribs just I saw that x-ray and prescription my temper got high what should I do with doctor like that I am from India he make my time and money loss plus I told he several time were it's paining and I showed also my chest instead of left he wrote right and x-ray also done in right
I have scoliosis and i wear a brace to correct it. But sadly i have tl deal with some bruising and blue areas that hurt me so much. Even mu shoulder hurts. I am in pain but my doctor cant do anything about it
I came here because yesterday I wanted my back popped..... I layer on my stomach on the ground and my mother did the CPR maneuver and I am in so much pain in the front and side. I can't even cough, I have to roughly clear my throat in order to "cough" or substitute a cough. Is this a bruised rib or is it more serious?
I played in a basketball game today and got home and took a shower then went to bed, I woke up like 3 am and my right ribs where hurting pretty bad so I took ibuprofen and looked at my ribs and the outside has a light bruising but it isn't tender when I touch it I mean it hurts slightly when I touch it but not to bad and has a constant dull pain, you think this is bruised ribs? I can't find anything else this could be
I fell.into a bunch of 5ft bolders on my side dont know.if there broke but it the right side bottom of the ribs about 6inch above the waist i been iceing everyday not getting worse but no better
I got picked up & slammed and it felt like they cracked but I got xrays & the doc said bruised, it really sucks, I had lady friend on top and put weight on it again after 2 weeks through it was bertter but she put her weight in the hand on those ribs and i felt and heard a crack & it started all over(maybe dislocation if the cartridge is what I hear and feel crack?)
Great Advice, thanks Doctor! BTW, The NSAID ALEVE really helped me with pain. I took them as directed because of the latest concerns on these OTC drugs. Also propping my right arm on a pillow so no weight was on my right side rib cage really helped me sleep. No heat or cold was used, only time and relaxation.
Bruise colour fading but still there is very monor pain sometimes and some muscle tightness why how long it takes to be normal it gas been one month of injury
I'm currently recovering from a serious rib cage injury due to a severe fall. I actually felt my rib cage 'compress/flex'' upon impact. I immediately became nauseous and nearly fainted from resulting traumatic pain/shock. Get to Urgent Care immediately! - Currently surviving on ibuprofen and bed rest. (Coughing / sneezing causes my chest/back/stomach to 'explode' with mind-blowing pain; and the ability to actually sleep to help my recovery ain't happening. The mere thought of coughing/sneezing during my recovery, in itself, will be enough to result in my having permanent insomnia/PTSD.)
the not sleeping is the worse for me, have given up trying to sleep in bed, and tomorrow am going to buy a reclining chair for the bedroom, should help a lot, good luck with yours.
I fell of a heavy heavy metal swing being stupid and I went back hit my head on the floor and then the big heavy metal swing smashed into my chest near my ribs it hurts like hell and I’ve just got into bed but I can’t get back up again it hurts sooo bad one of my worst ever injuries and I’ve cracked my head open twice and broken my toe before

This is the worst pain I've ever had....surfing and then.....SMACK into the rocks, when you try lying down to go to sleep it feels like you're being stabbed 100 times in 30 seconds. 3rd day now. Let's hope for a quick heal.
Gary Hough ouch
On my third week now and it's getting worse.
How can you tell- bruised or fractured? Pain level/Visible signs?
It hurts everytime my heart beats
This is my first time enjoying your UA-cam channel. Great work! I’m looking forward to more great content from you. Thank you so much for this informative video! I got so much out of it.
Ik this isn't about ribs, but there is this mussle or something on both sides of my bellybutton, and it feels like it is being pulled. My rib is also bruised but it is not that big of a deal rn. Everytime i try to get up after lying down these mussles hurt.

I'm here because I injured my lower-right rib when I made a sudden lateral move to my right to adjust something, but forgot that I was wearing a tight, wide powerlifting belt. I have trouble with sleep positions and I can't do abs exercises. Any ideas what the damage might be?
I'm just trying to get the information... What are ya'll doing here?

Good job, Dr. David Hill. Nice voice, too. You were very calming.
Can you still do restricted weight lifting with this injury?
I fell off my bike and hit rib cage with the wheels it honestly hurts
I fell off an upright arm chair 2 days ago, and fell hard on my left side. The
wooden chair trapped me, as it fell with me, against a hard wooden cupboard.
Since then, I have been getting moderate pain, especially when I cough, and I
can fell a clicking sensation just front of the armpit. Anyone know what I have
done? Is it a fracture? or even a broken rib or bone near my left shoulder?
I was hurt on the front right rib it’s not fracture it’s so pain may be cause of soft tissue resulting which my back rib hurt just below the shoulder I don’t know what to do it’s lockdown months
Took me 2 weeks to heal. Basically don't move that area much and don't use a heating pad, it only made it worse. Rest that area and apply cold packs.
Dose the bruise rip cause shortness of breath ?
Hi doctor have pain ribes can you helping me get batter
Hi.Doctor.I have a fraction rib for almost12 years.The pain is on and off what should i do .surgery or any other obtion

i feel a slight and pain in my costal cartilage after bumping into a mini fridge that Gave me a cartilage dent accidentally but i don’t have shortness of breath and i want to know if the dent costal cartilage will regenerate back or just heal as it is and the pain goes away
I broke a rib by coughing too hard. Yep. I had the worst flu ever for a month. Turning in bed turned out to be impossible. Coughing or sneezing had to be done with me pressing against my side, so the pain was bearable. I had to roll out of my bed for months with my arm pressed tightly against my ribs because I couldn't use my abdominal muscles. Breathing too deeply hurt like a bitch. The pain was like a sharp stab of a knife in a very specific place on my side.
I fell in the shower 2 weeks ago and fractured a rib . It’s still sore as hell . How long is the recovery time for this ?
4-8 weeks congrats on joining the club
I got hit in hockey very very hard right in the centre of the ribcage and after a week, fully breathing in and doing pushups hurts, it's very annoying
Idk what the hell I have it's not pain it'a some weird airy bubble feeling on my left rib area it's not ling damage like bones and muscle lkke imbalanxe or what what stretch i do
Zetsuke4 You should probably go to the hospital
I can't even breathe now without the feeling of a very sharp pain. It's on my right side, under my breast. (I know a little TMI) But I wonder if this could be a broken rib or just a bruise?
I gat little issue wit my ribs, it itches me ,how do I treat it pls?
I flipped my truck several times 2 days ago. I walked away from the accident and after they checked me for internal injuries and broken bones they released me and told me to follow up with doctor on monday. first day I was full of adrenaline and didn't have much pain, yesterday I was just sore all over but still felt OK considering what happened but today hours after I had already woke up an moved around a bit my ribs or shoulder started to hurt now I can't even laugh or cough without a cramping type pain expecially near back shoulder blade. Tried a back massager thing but I think it made it worse or didn't really help and took a pain pill and ibuprofen. I noticed that putting ice on does help though.
Tried 2 ollie a sewer circle cap and fell on my left shoulder and hurt my rib too. Really sketchy trick I tried but that is a skater life
I put ice on it I didn’t do anything else and I’ve been having this pain in my ribs for about two or three days now I think I might’ve torn it or something because I was doing a backbend could that Cause it
If I fall on toy blocks and Directly hit the blocks on my ribs will does that mean I fractured it or bruised?

I came here because yesterday I wanted my back popped..... I layer on my stomach on the ground and my mother did the CPR maneuver and I am in so much pain in the front and side. I can't even cough, I have to roughly clear my throat in order to "cough" or substitute a cough. Is this a bruised rib or is it more serious?
I have trouble breathing and pain when I ice or heat
I slipped in the shower. I'm going to have to get that medical alert necklace and I'm only 48!😂😂 It sure hurts though. Good advice from this doctor.
I just turned 50, sneezed so violently 3 days ago i heard a pop or a crack. Definetly bruised rib, not sure if fractured....sucks getting old loll

Madison Wood Damn Is it healed yet?
I got picked up & slammed and it felt like they cracked but I got xrays & the doc said bruised, it really sucks, I had lady friend on top and put weight on it again after 2 weeks through it was bertter but she put her weight in the hand on those ribs and i felt and heard a crack & it started all over(maybe dislocation if the cartridge is what I hear and feel crack?)
Great Advice, thanks Doctor!
BTW, The NSAID ALEVE really helped me with pain. I took them as directed because of the latest concerns on these OTC drugs. Also propping my right arm on a pillow so no weight was on my right side rib cage really helped me sleep. No heat or cold was used, only time and relaxation.
Thanks For Advice.
Bruise colour fading but still there is very monor pain sometimes and some muscle tightness why how long it takes to be normal it gas been one month of injury
did you lay on your right side? I cannot lay at all its so uncomfortable.
I'm currently recovering from a serious rib cage injury due to a severe fall. I actually felt my rib cage 'compress/flex'' upon impact. I immediately became nauseous and nearly fainted from resulting traumatic pain/shock. Get to Urgent Care immediately!
- Currently surviving on ibuprofen and bed rest.
(Coughing / sneezing causes my chest/back/stomach to 'explode' with mind-blowing pain; and the ability to actually sleep to help my recovery ain't happening. The mere thought of coughing/sneezing during my recovery, in itself, will be enough to result in my having permanent insomnia/PTSD.)
the not sleeping is the worse for me, have given up trying to sleep in bed, and tomorrow am going to buy a reclining chair for the bedroom, should help a lot, good luck with yours.
When can I walk normal its 3 days and it's getting more worse.?
I fell of a heavy heavy metal swing being stupid and I went back hit my head on the floor and then the big heavy metal swing smashed into my chest near my ribs it hurts like hell and I’ve just got into bed but I can’t get back up again it hurts sooo bad one of my worst ever injuries and I’ve cracked my head open twice and broken my toe before
