Had a rib fracture (now a arm fracture)

Rib fractures suck.  Lots of Advil and ice.

Jesus, Dana - what are you doing to yourself? You just can't stay healthy.

That being said, if they can't find any fractures, you may have torn the
cartilage between two ribs. Does it hurt to inhale? I did that once, and it
required a heavy dose of muscle relaxants (the surrounding muscles went into
spasm trying to support the ribs) and ibuprofen. But, it was significantly
better after a few days of that treatment.
