Welcome to the wonderful world of rib injuries.

I have picked up a couple of those myself. Most noteworthy was once as a
teenager while being thrown from the back of a bucking bull. Landed on a
rock and broke some ribs.

Whatever it is, if it is a rib injury, it will take awhile to heal. And
sometimes, they last for a long time. At least they will give you
problems
for well into the future.

You can have the docs look at it. But if it is in fact a rib injury of

Doesn't it feel great?? <grin>

I concur, sounds like when I had a cracked rib.... I assume that 's what
it
was, I got it from drunken Brazillian jujitsu, wrestling outside the
recomended weight and refusing to tap out. My boyfriend of the time
refused
to apologise for cracking my rib... fair enough, my own stupid fault. My
bench suffered and so did my martial arts. Sometime stsill get a twinge
when
it is cold but I didn't do anything to drastic to heal it, just tried to
stop doing things that hurt it until they didn't hurt it any more... as
has
been pointed out can be hard when those things are coughing, sneezing and
BREATHING though...

The thing I remember most about my youthful bull riding injury was trying to
sleep. Any position I assumed while laying down hurt if I breathed. If I
stopped breathing, no problem.

So I would fidget around until I found a position that didn't hurt much
while I breathed slowly. And hold that position until I fell asleep. Once I
was asleep, I was OK.

But Jess is right. Any kind of hiccups or sneezing was a new experience in
pain.
