Cracked rib or just bruised?
ON 1/2/09 DH endoed pretty ugly and bruised his chest. He said it hurts like heck to cough and doesn't tickle to lift things at work. It was a pretty nasty wreck judging by the number of cuts and how much dirt he emerged from the trail wearing.
If he goes to the doctor can they even tell or will he have to have X-Rays? They can't do anything for a cracked rib can they? I think a deep muscle bruise would hurt pretty bad for over a week but am I just being dismissive?
