Sort of. I saw a nurse, a couple of ambo's then spoke to my GP later that day but I've had migrating rib pain which has now sorta landed in one spot. BUT I think coughing isn't helping.

Started arnica today so hopefully that'll help.]]> Fri, 10 Aug 2012 20:43:58 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=42417&PID=5809284&title=broken-rib#5809284 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=42417&PID=5809211&title=broken-rib#5809211 Author: jazzy

Yep I would say 8 weeks is about right. Even if its just the cartilage and not actually a broken rib its still really painful. Avoid lifting- probably impossible, lol,...and hold your arms over your chest to brace yourself when u cough- or a pillow works well if they are really sore when u cough and u have time to grab a pillow! They dont do anything for broken ribs, so unless u are bedridden in excrutiating pain there probably is no point getting an xray,...and even then they dont do anything anyway,...but at least that would rule out other issues. If your only problem is pain when cough an u are otherwise fine since the accident, I'd say you'll just have to wait for it to get better.]]> Thu, 09 Aug 2012 17:01:38 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=42417&PID=5809119&title=broken-rib#5809119 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=42417&PID=5809107&title=broken-rib#5809107 Author: AandCsmum

Was there anything you could do? It's achy but it's only painful when I cough.

Just wondering if I should get an xray, had a car accident last monday but haven't had an xray as I thought it was just cartilage muscle pain but this rib pain in this spot seems to be lingering.

Spoke to another person who had a car accident and she said it hurt for 8 weeks!!!
