I Have Broken A Couple Of Ribs
23 Answers
Thought I would do some gardening - ha-ha! Only out there a couple of minutes when a recalcitrant weed made me fall and unfortunately I hit my rib cage on a low wall and have broken a couple of ribs. Anyone got any hints on how to cope? Doc has given me strong pain killers but I would like to only take them when I am desperate. In the meantime would appreciate any help. I know the first one is - stupid, what were you thinking of at your age, but I already know that one.

I can't take codeine based painkillers as they cause a really bad pain in my stomach.
As everyone says be gentle with yourself. Hope you heal quickly. xx

I was taken off cocodamol because it made me constipated mamya. I shall just have to put up with it for a while. First things first, and I want to get rid of this broken ribs thing first. I'll deal with the side effects afterwards. Bloomin' nuisance though. Just when you think things are going well some nastly little imp decides to let you know who is boss!
