Subject: Broken rib
From: [email protected]
Hello, I am not sure if this is the right conference to ask this
question, however, Here I go.. I am a commercial fisherman and I
fell about 3 weeks ago down into the hold of the boat and broke or
cracked a rib and wrenched and bruised my back and left arm.
My question, I have been to a doctor and was told that it was
best to do nothing and it would heal up with no long term effect, and
indeed I am about 60 % better, however, the work I do is very
hard and I am still not able to go back to work. The thing that worries me
is the movement or "clunking" I feel and hear back there when I move
certain ways... I heard some one talking about the rib they broke
years ago and that it still bothers them.?. any opinions?
thanx and cheers
