Broken ribs suck. - GoFuckYourself.com

kane · 03-21-2010, 01:42 AM

Thursday I slipped on a wet stair and fell. Landed on my side on the stairs. Thought I just knocked the wind out of myself. After a trip to the doctor and an x-ray it turns out I broke a couple of ribs. They are hairline fractures so there really isn't anything they can do for me other than give me pain killers and wrap it up, which actually doesn't seem to help that much.

It took me most of the day today to find comfortable ways of sitting. So I now can at least sit and watch TV or read a book on the couch or sit at the desk to work for a while without being in agony.

On the good side I did this while carrying the girlfriend's groceries into her house so she feels guilty and has been offer up anything she can to make me feel better

Rest up Kane. Sorry to hear of your pain.

Barefootsies · 03-21-2010, 12:59 PM

Yes they do.

One of the most painful injuries ever. You hurt to sleep, laugh, cough, move. Just about everything hurts. It is not fun at all, and take some time to mend.

I had a car accident where I broken, and cracked, a bunch of ribs. It was hell.

Good luck.

ottopottomouse · 03-21-2010, 02:09 PM

I have a pretty high pain threshold but I know how you feel

As well as the pain and inconvenience the painkillers I was given gave me really realistic dreams about people I know with just odd events in them rather than the sort of dreams I usually have which are just randomness. I had 4 weeks of being very confused about what was real and what wasn't

fatfoo · 03-21-2010, 02:20 PM

Broken ribs suck, yes, kane.

Semi-Retired-Dave · 03-21-2010, 02:36 PM

Been there a few times, Over jumping on my dirt bike, missing my landing by 10 feet.
I know when my ribs go, I usually don't go in to see the Doctor because they can't do anything about it, except make sure you have not punctured a lung and have internal bleeding.

The last time I broke my ribs, I caught a cold. Try sneezing and coughing with broken ribs. Not fun. And I don't take drugs so I didn't even have pain killers in me.

Sorry to hear about it, the more you rest, the faster they heal.

I rarely rest so I dealt with the pain for a while. I just show up to work and my partner sees the way I walk in and says, "You broke your ribs again I see" lol

Feel better soon! I been there too its not fun; I feel your pain : (

marcop · 03-21-2010, 03:53 PM

So painful... I've broken ribs before too. Get well soon.

borked · 03-21-2010, 04:42 PM

Yup, a ski accident did in my 2nd rib - fracture not a break but fuck that thing hurts. No laughing, and if you have hay fever, being spring and all, god help you because sneezing is like someone whacking you with a crow bar in the ribs

when you feel one coming on, just stand as straight as possible against a wall and try to suppress it best you can

Jakez · 03-21-2010, 04:46 PM

At least you can do just about anything still. Try breaking an arm/wrist and then try making yourself some food, driving a car, exchanging money with a cashier or taking a shower with one hand. Huge pile of suck.

When I was 9 I broke my left arm. Luckily I am right handed so I could still write and feed myself and wipe my ass and stuff like that. But this was in about 1980 so the cast was heavy and hard plaster. A few times I accidentally hit myself in the head with it and nearly knocked myself out.

I have successfully fought off a few sneezes, but made the horrid mistake of being slouched over for the one that got through. It was not fun. I will take your advice if it happens again.

Score! Feel better

Danny B · 03-21-2010, 10:16 PM

been there done that.
I took a huge hit playing rugby some time ago.
Knocked me da fuck out and left me with a couple of broken ribs.

Hurts like a MF, all the time.
my advise: take it easy on the painkillers, they do more harm than good.

Good to know you'll be in good hands with your GF lookin after you.

Adam_M · 03-21-2010, 10:18 PM

My advice DON"T SNEEZE!

Edit: To late

baddog · 03-21-2010, 11:01 PM

I cracked a couple in high school, in a very weird way. Will never forget it.

I spent about 2 months in an orthopedic boot when I stubbed my toe a few years back. Was just walking out of one room in the house and into the other and stubbed my toe. Thought nothing of it after the initial pain. Turns out I got what they call Turf Toe. It hurt like hell and I was pretty much unable to walk without the boot until it healed. I still catch hell about getting that dumb injury.

How did you crack the ribs?

Sarah_Jayne · 03-22-2010, 05:08 AM

That can't be fun! My grandmother did that when I was a kid but I think she is the only person I have actually known break a rib.

Get better soon!

Spunky · 03-22-2010, 05:49 AM

Sucks big time,get well soon

Serial Pervert · 03-22-2010, 06:09 AM

NBBCash Matze · 03-22-2010, 06:42 AM

Been a number of football greats with careers shortened by Turf-Toe.

My friends and I play fantasy football every year and it seems that each year one of us gets a guy who misses time with turf toe. We had always slammed the guys saying that they should just suck it up and play. I no longer do that. I can see how it could end a career. It takes forever to heel and it was one of the worst pains I have ever had in my life.

Scott McD · 03-22-2010, 12:19 PM

Unlucky.

Always look at the positives though. Enjoy the blowjobs...

When Deion Sanders was criticized for for not being tough enough to play with turf-toe he had a great quote .... "Tell that to Jack Lambert"

Jack Lambert, Steeler great and extreme hard ass retired because of turf toe.
