I Have An Owie!

So, as some of my friends already know, just over a week ago I had one of those really stupid accidents in the home that shouldn't happen but did. I was cleaning the bath, knelt funny, tried to get my weight off my stupidly painful knee and fell sideways onto the rim of the bath. Result = probable cracked rib, which hurts whenever I do pretty much

*hugs you back* Ribs pain is nasty because you use them for everything you do. Hopefully it will heal quickly. *Sends JJ over to take care of your decorating for you*

*hugs* Thank you.

I'm sure everything will be very tasteful thanks to JJ ;)

Yeah, this is my second time around with rib trouble, and having a coal fire heating the house doesn't help, shovelling coal and ash *sigh* Ah well, I managed last time and I'll manage this time too.

Do you have a brace or wrap you can use?

That's not done these days, it constricts breathing and can lead to respiratory diseases, or so my doctor told me last time. It's just rest and painkillers, but since I can't take painkillers that are strong enough to reduce the pain, that leaves me with rest. *shrugs* Good thing I have high tolerance for pain. =/

That's good to know.

Yeah, it's certainly lucky for me. I guess o_O
