iworkwhippets 12,543 Posted December 17, 2017 Report Share Posted December 17, 2017 Any medics on board, reason im asking is this, a good while back while out ferreting. I had a bad fall with me landing on top of my camera and ferret box, no lies but I was out cold for a spell, when I came around, I was entangled in barbed wire, anyways gets myself home no problems. no aches or pains, slept well that night, but the following night in bed, I woke up In agony, my lady had the paramedics out, they give me a going over and recommended rest. the pain got better, but ive always had a twinge in my rib cage, I just put it down to my age, but these last 3 days, I get some cracking pain shots, and im uncomfortable in bed, ive done some googling, it looks and sounds like a floating rib, im wondering should I strap myself up, to near Christmas for the doctors, ive to much to do Quote Link to post Share on other sites
