Sir please tell me what should I do to heal my rib please sir.
I injured my sternum and surrounding one rib .It has little tenderness even after 11 Months, it continues to pain on a particular position while doing something, I am 17 years old boy. The injury was little
but it not healed It hurts on twisting and on bending neck. I had ignored my injury for 8 months and continued playing.
Sir I had played cricket and badminton with my injured ribs. In X- ray a little strain was found in the ribs .
Now I am taking rest
Sir, in how days my ribs will be completely healed?
What should I not do?
What should I do?
Hope you will answer sir !
Please answer and help me sir😶
7 broken ribs after being worked on by paramedics for 40 minutes after a heart attack, day 7 now, hard not to be depressed but i guess im still alive for reason.
keep going! conquering recovery puts is the first step to long term success in health 😊❤❤
How are you taking care of it? If I may ask.
@eldaleduro8810 besides sleeping and sitting with my back propped up there's not much you can do, but it's been 6 weeks or so and I'm pretty much healed completely. My heart? Well that's another story.
@@jmode242 I am glad that you’ve healed and whats going on with your heart? Are you getting care for it?
@eldaleduro8810 oh yeah, I'm getting pacemaker in September. I appreciate the concern. Take care.
8 broken ribs, broken collarbone and collapsed lung. Be patient, it gets better over time.
Hey my dad have fractured ribs... 2 are displaced and 3 are just normal crack but no puncture... So what are the movement he can do which will not cause lung puncture
I got bear hugged and cracked a rib. Felt like ages to heal but there was nothing the health services could really do to help. I wish you a quick recovery
How many months to fell hundred percentage
Same happened to me on Christmas day, 🫣😒
I got a hockey puck straight to the ribs during a game and played the rest and an hour ago it was hurting like hell
I hit my rib with my elbow and it started hurting really bad, its been like 2 weeks and it still hurts i cant even walk properly
Bro I literally got bear hugged and I didn’t think much of it but a week later my rib hurts more and now that you said that I think that’s what happened to me
Thanks for not drowning! Hope you heal quickly and completely!
Thanks for the info. I just broke 3 ribs 3 1/2 weeks ago. Just wanted to give a little more hope about the recovery process because that’s what active people want to know also. I’m 57 and play a lot of golf so when this happened to me I was concerned about how long would I be out. Everything I read and my doctor said 6-8 weeks due to my age so that really sucked but, I’ve got good news. When it first happens it is the most miserable feeling and the pain is ridiculous from breathing, coughing, sneezing and sleeping etc… after about week I could pitch & chip for a short period of time,week 2 i could swing about 50% 30-50 yard shots week 3 I could almost swing about 80% this is just under week 4 and I can now swing 100%. When I was laid up I did do some stretches and limber exercises for legs & hips just so you know as well. So early on it may feel like it will take forever to heal but I’m really surprised my healing was this quick. Obviously I couldn’t go out and play a contact sport football or basketball due to possible re injury and I definitely don’t want that misery again. Just thought I would share my experience to give a little hope.
Thanks so much 🥰 this gives me hope
Have 2 cracked ribs right now. You’re not exaggerating about the pain when coughing.! Getting up from bed is a huge, painful endeavor. The doctor told me to sleep propped up. walking is the only recommended exercise. Prescribed bone broth 2x a day with marine collagen peptides. He told me he broke 8 ribs once while surfing
I broke 1 or 2 ribs last week and it’s still super uncomfortable. Anytime I move or breathe, I own a detail shop and I am the only person who runs the whole business and do the detailing. I’m working on a 31ft long 14ft high camper and it’s killing me. How long did it take you to start feeling better
@@DiamondDetailingBuzz it got better bit by bit. I think it was 2 weeks before i noticed it was better. 4 weeks to heal, i think. Mine were simple breaks, the bones were not displaced. That’s much worse. Don’t push yourself too hard!
I joined the broken ribs club today, broke my ribs into mma training
Dude, this is the most painful and annoying injury ever. I'm 4 weeks in and pain is still 5 out of 10 at night. Man, I just can't imagine the pain ever going away, and coughing still hurts. How are you now?
I know! I didn't break my ribs but I bruised them and what a nightmare. I wish I'd been able to tell you sooner to tie a rope to the end of your bed to hold onto when you get up and to hold onto so you can ease your way back down into a laying position.
It really helps take the pressure off. Also, rib injuries causes you to have to take shorter breaths because it's painful to breathe normally but it isn't good for your lungs so as difficult as it is to breathe normally, you should try to make a conscious effort to try to in between having to take short breaths in order to breath w/the least amount of discomfort.
I'm so sorry. I hope you are feeling better. Also, hold a pillow to your chest when you have to cough. This too can help to be a buffer for your ribs as they're affected by your coughing. At least, I suspect this could help you.
Wishing you a speedy recovery! Youve helped me with my pain so much, it pains my heart to know you're in pain!
8 broke ribs and a clavicle from a motorcycle accident but this looks like it will help thank you
Get well soon! I can't believe that working out with the TRX bands doesn't hurt with cracked ribs. 💪🏻
I’ve bruised my ribs before after a fall on concrete, so I feel your pain! I love your videos and wish you well! Take care of yourself and take your time to heal!
How long it takes for you to heal I had the same incident
@@katyesimmons3204 I had a hard fall on concrete today and my ribs hurt so bad. I feel your pain.
How long it takes ? Was it so painful when you try to get up? Also Breath and sneezing hurt so much
Sometimes people with broken ribs tend to get chest congestion because they’re breathing shallow.
How do you even get down to the floor to meditate? How do you put your socks and shoes on? I’m on day 5 of 4lower ribs and two fractured L2s . I was running and doing Pilates before this stupid fall. How soon are you doing these exercises? I can’t even find a comfortable way to sit or sleep. Let alone put shoes on
Man o man the sneezing and coughing is the worst I literally scream of pain and have to squeeze or clinch my fist everytime .. I’m glad I saw this video good pointers thanks a lot 💪🏼
I fractured a rib while doing calisthenics it hurts like hell but I hate not workouting out so I went out and did some push ups and pull ups and I just ended up making it hurt more so I didn’t know what to do to stay active this video helping me stay postive I will be doing flexibility for now and maybe a minor workout
Don't rush it. I know I did at the beginning of this year because I was desperate not to lose my gains...huge mistake. Went back to the gym about 3 weeks in to feel the pump thinking I could just suck it up and work my way around it. Now I'm 6 weeks in and still pretty sore so I had to stop eveything again because I was reinjuring myself. Patience always pays. Good luck to you !
Broken ribs are awful. They can't be immobilized like other bones and it hurts just to breathe.
I didn't drown..... We call that the Pollyanna approach where you find a nugget of positivity even in the worst situations. Love your channel. Any thoughts of addressing pain for people with Ehlers Danlos? Thanks for all you do. Well quickly
"If you think a broken rib is a problem, just wait until you experience a punctured lung." Can confirm. Sucking chest wounds really do suck ;)
I hear you broke 9 ribs, sternum and punctured lung, and compressed S8 in my back ,2 months ago. I'm still either on my bed, or couch. Walking slow and not to much, breathing is not easy. I'm just need to stay focused and patience
@@johanetteschmidt4228holy smokes man hire did you do that? I hope you start feeling better soon
My rib is currently busted. Been almost 2 weeks. Feel like I’m starting to lose muscle, and getting stir crazy. Managed to get a little leg workout yesterday, body weight only.
Patience is such a hard lesson.
same, i am on 3rd week. How long did it take you to fully heal?
@@JordanMelbyVlogs I’m back to 100% now. Took it easy at the gym and on my MTB for awhile, but feel like I did a good job exercising without lifting too heavy/doing too much.
@@michaeljordan3084 how long for healing?
@@JordanMelbyVlogs 4 weeks I was stretching and doing light legs, 6 weeks I could ride snd lift at 30%, 8 I was lifting 60%, 10 weeks lifting 100% strength and back to normal riding.
@@michaeljordan3084 that’s a long time
I have four broken ribs right now and I think you are dreaming. I can't move without great pain.
I'm laying in the hospital with 4 broken ribs,on my left side,,,6,7,8,9, whatever that means ,pain is unreal even with pain meds,, this sucks
Yes
Yes
Thank you coming from an awesome surfer I skate of half pipe and e-bike I took the turn too hard and I hit the exact rib where you did only it was pavement instead of water 🌊 Iso I greatly appreciate your input it's been very informative it's a pleasure to subscribe and yes it is very painful during the healing process ❤ 💯😎
Apparently people with fractured ribs often have other injuries caused at the same time...in my case also a badly sprained knee on same side as the fractured rib. It gets even more complicated to figure out how to deal with it.
I recently wiped out on my ebike, slipped off the sidewalk the tires went out under me on wet grass and BAM! I bruised my knee, my Helmet and Goggles smashed into my cheekbone! Bruised my elbow but worst of all the right handlebar smashed into my ribs! Its been 1 week already! 🤕
Same!
Same here
Similar thing happened to me but I crashed into a ditch going full speed. Three broken ribs from the handlebars wrapping around my back.
I broke my ribs 3 weeks ago Enduro motorcycle accident. There was no way I could have worked out. Walking helped, breathing helped. Rest was more important than anything. I miss doing pullups...
I had a frozen shoulder and couldn’t do anything, just normal everyday stuff really hurt, I hope it’s not like that for you. Painkillers didn’t really work so I didn’t take any, I tried acupuncture. I need to start doing stuff again now, I’m wondering if any of your videos can help me start back to it? Thank you 🙏
Thank you! Needing patience, 2 wks in & sore but missing the gym so much.
Same bro, i have been skipping the gym for 2 weeks bcs of this🥲
6:06 I bursted out laughing and now it hurts way too much bro, It really is like that...
Biking is a bad choice for anybody with broken ribs
Wow! What an experience
Just recently cracked a rib or two, or maybe lumbar vertebra -zero fun. Very cool to have your helpful advice at the right time. Thanks for the synchronicity, however unintentional!
So basically there is nothing I can do except wait it out. How long does it take for the pain to go away?
Was headed into day 9 of 100 pushups/day (for 100 days) inn bout 5 min... then I feel on a hike and bam! Im going to be down for weeks.
the pain makes me feel like there's no end in sight
Interesting, hard to avoid laughing due to your humor, btw which is best postion to sleep to help in healing broken rib.
back
I am from Meghalaya India and thank you for your video it makes me understand what to do.
Pooping feels awful :(
Managed to punch myself in the ribs as I tripped and fell while jogging down a hill. 🤦🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️ I’m a bit antsy, so never completely stop. Found walking and lower body calasthenics a good go to, mindful yoga - definitely no chatarangas, press ups or things where you have to take the body weight through your arms/chest and no regular ab work. Standing abs is manageable slowly. Temporarily given up working with weights on upper body. No running, the impact and deeper breathes cause too much pressure and the ribs!
I teach yoga, so this is likely a valuable lesson 😆
Not right after, but soon, big breaths are good to keep the lungs clear, even if they hurt a bit. Of course, don’t push through bad pain.
How do you know if you could return to the gym after a crack rib?
Last summer, I fractured a rib at Aldi when I shoved a grocery cart into another one to get my quarter back. I felt a small “Pop,” but kept telling myself that I was fine. Not true. It took most of the summer for my rib to heal. Speedy recovery, Matt!
How many months
@@piyushkumar-me1nb it took about 8weeks to completely heal. I used homeopathic remedies to facilitate the healing process.
@@BRPeterYoga mine is still tender after 6 months i took homeopathy medicine but not full rekief
@@piyushkumar-me1nb The important thing is that you’re making some progress. What homeopathic remedies/potencies did you take? Maybe there’s a remedy that I could recommend for you, based on what helped me. Also, gentle yoga stretches, Pranayama and Yoga Nidra are beneficial. Hope this helps.
@@BRPeterYoga in starting there was pain on laughing and while leaning down i can feel some bruised rib which went away in three months but after three months to 6 months tenderness is still there like if i press it feels temder and its sore whole day but does not pain much , and it was not big fracture, just kind of Bruised chest, i don't know names of medicine as orthopaedic doctor himself gave 4 different kind kf drop and one whjte tablet in 100 rupees
I broke ribs 2-7 on my left, broken on both down the side and in the back.... So it's hurts like hell to move my left shoulder. What PT should I try?
Do you feel any better yet?
how long until the ribs are healed?
So can i do these with the punctured lung tooo 😭😭
thank you for your video - my husband broke 2 ribs 2 years ago and now is suffering from mid left back pain no doubt from scar tissue - do you have any advice or have another video how to address scar tissue from broken ribs? thank you in advance.
Check out Bob and Brad physical therapists on RUclips. They have two broken rib videos and the recovery to prevent scar tissue issues.
@@E4TA67 Thank you -- will do. :)
Healing vibes! Cracked ribs suck.
I think I broke a rib jumping off a 12 ft tower into a lake. My life jacket created unnecessary drag and put my at a weird angle. I honestly think life jackets to more harm than good when jumping into the water.
Matt hope you heal quickly & so glad you didn't drown....for real.
cracked a rib coughing mid copd flareup. not about to find out how bad it actually technically is with an xray since they cant do anything to fix it anyway but my god this is hell especially since the cough just never goes away and i have no idea how ill heal it if i keep straining it
I broke my 8th rib. Coughing mKes it feel great
Sooo sorry I hope your fine insha'allah
Take it easy!
this video would have been useful in February. I broke ribs bailing off playground equipment while playing with my kids 😂. It took a long time to heal!
Take care!
I got into a fight in school Im not sure if i have a broken rib but when i breath i feel like the bones are moving around and stabbing me
Im too scared if i have to do surgery
I hope its not that bad i didn't want to know
The pain was not that bad but it gotten worse with the time passing
Im too scared to move rn
Well how are you feeling now that it’s a month later?
One of the worst feelings is sneezing with injured ribs
How have you progressed in three months please?
Yesterday i broke my rib and didn't think anything of it now its ticking my funny bone painfully

Dude seriously... Watching this right now with a cracked rib and i really dont appreciate the humor! Literally painful to get through this video

drowning is for people who sleep with pillows anyways
