It could really have been a lot worse, grateful nothing was broken and I didn't loose any teeth. 
Any tips at all for some relief with the bruised ribs? I know there isn't much that can be done, I am currently using topical Arnica gel which is helping slightly. Taking Aleve as needed and directed.
Thanks in advance. |
Oohhh sorry to hear that, I hope you are feeling alright. I slipped down my stairs the other day, knee gave out and I landed right on my derriere and elbow. I just took ibuprofen and rubbed my bum nothing more I could do. Good thing you didn't have anything broken. I Hope you are feeling better soon.
