Alsgalpal Posted November 28, 2004 Share Posted November 28, 2004 I dont think there is anything they can do for broken ribs, you got to use your lungs all the way, or you get real sick. They can at least get you some real good pain meds. To help you thru, thats gotta hurt man!!! Think of how much fun you will have here during the party on massive pain meds... JK, sorry.

Riv Posted November 28, 2004 Author Share Posted November 28, 2004 Thanks. I am dying. Unfortunately the only pain meds they give you in the Corps is Motrin. We call it vitamin M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cygnus Posted November 28, 2004 Share Posted November 28, 2004 Get it taped so you don't puncture a lung. Ask for some Demerol, that will help also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EVER! Problem is it was already cracked. I heard it pop in my brain. And it's in the back. Shoot me. I definatly know that feeling Riv. I had a back injury in 9th grade while lifting weights and I just knew exactly how it started. After I did the military press with more weight then I was supposed to, more weight then I weighed at the time actually, I remember feeling that snapping feeling in my lower back after a difficult rep caused me to arch my back chest out. Blame it on the naivete of being 15 and trying to impress some other dancing girl by being able to lift her up for a performance . I did the stoopid thing though after I realized I got hurt and continued to dance on it. Needless to say 2 months later I could barely take step without feeling like I was gonna fall over in pain which took a good 5 years out of dancing for me and effectivly ended any hopes for a professional dancing career. I hope this injury doesnt leave you out of commission for too long, Hopefully within a few months you will be back on your feet and running again. Just be sure to take as much time as you need to heal and dont push yourself to heal faster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
