This is a pity post 😫😫😫😫

I took a bad tumble on the ice this morning and I’m fairly sure I’ve cracked my ribs 😫😫😫

I’m in so much pain right now, it hurts to breathe. I’ve rang my brother (with lots of tears 😂) and he’s on his way home to check I’m ok or if I need to go and get checked out.

Ow ow ow ow ow 😣

Try pushing down on your sternum, that's what my doctor did when I had a similar issue. Apply lots of ice, take lots of ibuprofen, and take a big, long rest. 🤗
@BlueVeins it’s the back of my rib cage, it’s so painful 😣

Oh good god i hope youre ok?!

I do have 1 question though

Where the hell did you find ice?? Its the 1st day of summer lol
@Gangstress lol at the ice rink

It’s so bad, not even joking, I just keep crying
Gangstress · 36-40, F
@SophieSmiles oh mate im so sorry 🤗

Get it looked at by a+e and get painkillers down ya. If you're struggling to move id say its broken xx

Ice? Wow.

Can you take a deep breath? If you broke your ribs I hope you have a comfortable chair to sleep in , because laying down is the worst ! Been there .
TexChik · F
@SophieSmiles ouch ! Hope your back is ok .And the rib brace they will want to strap you up with, is a torture device . It’s gotta be.
@TexChik thank you

Please keep us informed about your condition as soon as you know more. Stay strong meanwhile. 💜
Jaydee7 · 31-35, M
@SophieSmiles Cry if you have to, i wont hold it against you. Well, after you're healed fully i will make fun of you about it but that is later :) Hugs
@Jaydee7 I’ve cried so much I’m not gonna lie 😣
Jaydee7 · 31-35, M
@SophieSmiles Sorry Sophie 💜 I really hope it's not fractured. Here's hoping you get well soon

Oh you poor, poor kid. They can't do anything for cracked ribs. Sometimes they will wrap your ribcage tightly, but it's not supposed to be necessary.

Take some pain relievers.
@4meAndyou I’m going to hospital to Hager checked out, it hurts so much
Unfortunately there's nothing they can really do with broken ribs, you will be in pain for a while💙😣🤗🤗
@AthenaArena it hurts so bad 😫
@SophieSmiles you better get checked though just in case
@AthenaArena yea we’re heading to the hospital now
Awwwww babes!! Imma give you virual hugs 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
@SophieSmiles but then who'd i complain about life to? 🥺
@PervertedPrincessOfDeath in that case maybe avoid the hugs 😘
@SophieSmiles god damn it! Fine imma just keep sending virtual hugs 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
Damn that's horrible. I hope it's not very serious 😔 human bodies can be stupid.
@SophieSmiles Are you going to get it checked? If it's broken there's some sort of a vest you wear till it heals. And pain meds of course. It happened to my grandpa once and it healed within 2 weeks.
@PiecingMeBackTogether I’m at the hospital now but will be waiting hours probably. Think they will x ray me but just have to wait
@SophieSmiles Goodluck cutie 🤗

So sorry to hear this, also it's going to hurt to laugh for a very long time :(

Does the ice rink have a medical person around?
@Viper I got myself home and now my brother is taking me to hospital to get checked
Viper · M
@SophieSmiles good luck 🤗

@geoam1 it’s awful 😣
Had broken ribs, definitely an "Oouch!" situation. If you do manage to get comfortable you fear moving because the pain is strong.
@UnderLockDown it’s so painful, I’m exhausted but it hurts too much to sleep
WaryWitchWandering · 31-35, F
Oh no 🥺

Blows to the Ribs are the worst 😢

Hope all is ok… are you icing it?
@WaryWitchWandering I have an ice pack but I’m currently in hospital waiting to be seen because it just hurts so bad 😣
WaryWitchWandering · 31-35, F
@SophieSmiles good luck, they will help you
Holy shit that sounds intense and scary. I hope you’re okay. 😩❤️‍🩹
@Stark thank you, it’s so bad right now 😣
tacobell · 26-30, M
Wow sorry you fell. Sounds like a broken rib. Wishing fast recovery
@tacobell that’s what it’s feeling like, just waiting to be seen now
WandererTony · 56-60, M
So much pain!! But Sophie smiles! Thats the spirit! Keep it up! 🙂

Oh fractured ribs hurt so much, I feel for you! 🤗🤗
@Jeephikelove it hurts so bad 😣
wackidywack · 22-25
omg have it checked !
@wackidywack I might have to but don’t know they’ll do anything anyway. My brother knows about this stuff so waiting for him to get here
wackidywack · 22-25
@SophieSmiles probably won't but might prescribe some pain relievers for the pain as it heals
Teslin · M
So sorry!! I hope everything turns out well.
romell · 46-50, M
All the best get well soon

@Mindfulness it’s so painful 😣
Mindfulness · 51-55
@SophieSmiles I've broken and bruised mine many times in various sports and accidents, I can't give you any advice other than pain killers I'm afraid. There's really nothing you can do.
