You can take over the counter analgesic like paracetemol or Diclofenac.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for your query,
I have sympathy for your pain due to trauma.

I consider that you are having more pain as you don’t have pill for analgesia now.

You can take over the counter analgesic like paracetemol or Diclofenac.

If you have access to ER then you can visit there.
You can do hot fomentation till time.

I will advise MRI spine to see for any other neurological injury
Physiotherapy like TENS and IFT may help you for pain relief.

For sternum fracture you need rest and further regular check up to see for healing.

Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.

Wishing you good health.

Take care.
