My friend told me that you should consult your GP about this. How are the ribs and the cough now? |

Stumpy
thanks. ribs still painful. I went to the walk in centre on saturday and was thoroughly examined. she said there's no sign of infection currently, but gave me breathing exercises to make sure i breathe deeply every hour or so. and also said 'take the max recommended dose of painkillers. you need to stay on top of the pain to breathe properly and prevent infection' so painkillers are helping, which makes coughing easier. told to go straight back to the GP if anything changes or worsens. I thought yesterday that it was improving, but then woke up this morning and realised it was the painkillers as they'd worn off overnight! but that's ok. shows they help. thank you xxxx |
