Broken ribs?


Question:
what do i do if i broke and brused some ribs

Answers:
most people will say "go to the ER!!".

Ignore them. All you will do is waste your time getting an x-ray, then get your ribs taped up. Get some medical tape, wrap it around your ribs. That is if they are broken. If they are bruised then just let time heal them.

That is, as long as your breathing is fine right now.

Get to the hospital to rule out injury to internal organs! They'll also give you good pain killers.
Go see a doctor as soon asap because the broken ribs can harm your lungs .. Other then that just wait for it to heal
