Suggest Treatment For Back And Rib Pain After An Injury
Question: I tripped and fell, and landed on a metal step stool. I landed on my chest, right under my right breast and above the rib. This was about an hour ago. I had the wind knocked out of me. I now have some pain in my back as well as in the front, where I landed. I'm able to breath without much pain. I'm just concerned about the pain in both my back and front. I don't think I broke my rib or anything, and I don't have any insurance to go to the E.R. .
Brief Answer:
Avoid heavy weight lifting.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I have read your query.
You just need to add 1 tab. thiocolchicoside + serratiopeptidase three times a day to your already taking medication by prescription, you can also apply painkiller ointment of diclofenac three times a day.
Avoid heavy weight lifting, pushing and pulling heavy objects, because it will further increase the pain.
- Apply hot packs for 30 min in morning and evening .
I hope it helps.
