I think i might have broken my rib? ?!
Question: I think i might have broken my rib.? .?
Okay so i was at my friend Kendra's house with my friend sam.
We were playing around like always, and then Kendra pounced on me and her knee landed right on my ribs.
At the moment i could not breathe and i was on the ground trying to mouth help me.
Sam was going to call 911 but then i started to get my breath back and said don't call them yet.
So then i sat up and was in lots of pain. Then they helped me stand up. we walked back to her house and her mom looked at it, then i went home.
So now i am home and here are things that are wrong:
-when i walk i have to walk hunched to my left side.
-i have to sit hunched over forwards or to the side.
it hurts when:
-get up from a chair or get up from laying down.
-when i sit/lay down
-Take deep breathes
-sneeze [OMG! THE WORST PAIN]
-burp/hiccup
-sit up straight or stand straight
-raise my left arm
-pick things up with my left arm
-yawn/stretch/strain
and yeah, i just wanna know if my rib could be broken
my dad wont take me to the doctor tonight...he is one of those people who have to wait like 2 days and if its still hurts then you go to the doctor....
Oh and the pain rate is like 8 when i do those things i just listed but when i just sit here hunched over then its like a 4...like it doesn't really hurt its just like...pressure i suppose.
:)
it also hurts when:
-i sniff. like you do when you have a cold or something...
-and when i blow my nose
-when i blow air out my mouth or nose
Yes it does hurt when i put pressure on it. I actually tried to wrap it up with some stuff i got when i hurt my hand but it hurt to much so i was just like...forget it.Health Question & Answer

Answers:
First off, it doesn't matter what age you are, or if your small, your bones are still very strong.
You most likely have bruising, for sure. Broken ribs kill!! They hurt all the time, no matter what your doing. I would go to the E.R right away to get things checked out.

This could be a serious injury if it's broken or even fractured - if it hurts to breathe it's serious ------ you need to go to the doctor now. AND I will warn you that if there is a fracture, it must be treated within 24 hours of the injury - DO NOT WAIT to go to the doctor. GO now.Health Question & Answer
