[QUOTE="blackhawk468, post: 146478, member: 20438"] When I had a bad crash at my first race, I was sure my ribs were broken. When he told me "no" I didn't believe him and asked him why without x-rays did he know they wern't broken. He told me that with ribs you can actually feel each individual one and press down on them, obviously if they move, or causes great pain it is broken or cracked. He put his hand on my ribs and was feeling it, and made me do the same, he said "see you can feel that it is there" He also told me if they were broken I would have some hard time breathing, sneezing, and laughing and it would be a sharp pain, not the ouch this hurts while laughing and saying "did you see me go over the bars?" that was going on by me. He told me to rest up stay off the bike for a few days, put some ice on it and I should be fine in a day or so. My ribs were bruised and I had some limited movement, and it was a little difficult to walk for a day, but I was feeling better by the end of the week. Hope you get better soon. :) [/QUOTE]
