Hi,
Help,
1. any suggestions on how to lessen pain associated with:
Rib contusion, possibly fractured ribs is greatly appreciated; I understand from the ER doctor pain is a significant problem and often lasts for several weeks
2. any suggestions on what increases healing of
multiple abrasions on elbows, forearms, triceps; I've clean out most of the asphalt etc.
I had to take one of my best friend's to St. Peter's ER this weekend, they had a tumble on their Street Bob (Harley) and they were able to drive their bike home.
I didn't see any other posts specifically related to these types of injuries so I posted this.
Hope everyone else had a drama-free Memorial Day weekend. Jenny

Re: Rib contusion, factured ribs possible, multiple abrasions
Developing a cough with broken ribs is an entirely new adventure in pain.
It allows you to relive the moments after the initial break, just in case you've forgotten how much it sucked.
Best treatment: Prevention; don't go near anyone who might have a cold!

Sneezing with broken ribs is almost fun enough to make you pass out, so try to avoid that if that's not your bag.
