That’s actual advice, not a plea for sympathy. But if anyone else has broken their ribs, please, please tell me what helped and how you managed.

Motorbike accident. Wild Turkey was recommended to me by a USMC relative. Never touched it before or since. It works if you can drink it. Do not cough.

Oh you poor sod. It does get better quite quickly, and then slowly. I used to take ibuprofen 20 mins before getting out of bed in the morning. Took the edge off it.

Hopefully you’ll find that quite quickly you can get comfortable standing or lying on your back. It’s transitioning between the two that sucks.

I broke my ribs about 20 years ago. Do not sneeze. The pain you're in now will pale in comparison. I also broke my toe, that was fun the 1st morning when I briefly forgot it was broke, until the searing pain stopped me in my tracks.

You just brought back a painful memory. A cold and broken ribs wasn't fun. Every cough / sneeze was agony

You are the Queen. I broke my ribs twice - breathing and laughing are particularly difficult. You have my huge, huge hugs and respect that you can even stay slightly positive, on top of everything else xxx
