Any Doctor Anons here?
Fell today while snow skiing. Pain on left side of chest. Hurts bending over, reaching, sitting down. I'd rather not go to doctor, so if it sounds like it's just a pulled muscle and I can be careful and let it heal, I'd like to do that.
What do you say?
Couldn't just be pulled muscle?
It happened so fast, I don't really know what I did when I fell. I don't think I used my arm because I still had hold of my poles..
There are guys being stupid but I think I have at least a couple who are serious.
Thank you We all need help once in awhile.
No not spitting up blood. Didn't even think about the possibility of puncturing a lung.
Can't wait until tomorrow?
Not a shill. Been here since day one and a patriot through and through.
Yes immediately after fall. I can take a lot of pain, so I'll do Tylenol (woman). When you fall it happens so fast you really don't know what you did with arms and legs, but the fact that I still had my poles leads me to believe I didn't use my arms.
How would I know immediately if rib fracture. It really hurts. I can breath fine and taking a deep breath pulls at left side and hurts.
Stopped smoking a long time ago.
Wasn't moving that fast. I guess it was controlled as I was able to get my skis out of the way.
