Broken rib still so painful 8 mos. after accident, doc ordered new x-rays, different view. It's not one but four broken ribs. Now I don't feel so bad about fussing that I still hurt.
Ready for these pains in the side to be healed.
@MelissaHDavis I broke 3 once, coughs and sneezes are an adventure. Rib fractures are often hair thin and the nature of the ribs and overlaps due to radiographic position causes a lot of shadows making missing a fracture more possible. The good news is they don't do anything about said fractures for the most part anyway, I hope you feel better soon. ☮️

Oh, I hope so. "Ev'ry breath you take, ev'ry move you make, I'll be hurting you" is my theme song.
@MelissaHDavis Ha, I remember that, cheer up! Once healed you never think about them again. Unlike the other fractures in my body my rib fractures display no evidence of arthritis.
@MidnightRider
This is good to know; my hubby the ex-airborne soldier has enough arthritis for both of us!
