Had broken ribs 3 different times.
You don't walk quickly, you don't cough, you don't laugh, or breath very deeply.
At ages 10, 30, and 42 they took 6 weeks to heal.
Yep. I broke 3 ribs in 7th grade. Took 6 weeks before I was back on the football team.
“You don’t walk quickly, you don’t cough,”
Like hell you don’t cough. You don’t want to, but you will. You try to cough as shallow as possible, find a position before you cough that is less painful. You will cough though
