Cracked ribs are horrrrible you can't do anything, you'll get good at "not sneezing". Instead of 'AHH-CHOOO' its more like "oh shit, oh no, oh...ahh-hnnnnnnnnnnnnnn".
I've had 3 cracked ribs. Once from Muay Thai the other '2' from BJJ.
I say '2' because I didn't give the first BJJ injury enough recovery time (only 6 weeks) before sparring again - it got landed on and went crack again.
So give it rest, more rest plus get some soft tissue work to increase the healing and reduce scar tissue. I was also told to gradually get movement back into the area by gently stretching and deep breathing. If it hurts, then stop.
The hit at Muay Thai moved my rib enough to slightly rotate the lower vertebra at that rib level, a Chiro sorted it out. (sorry to sound dramatic, just letting you know what to look out for if you end up with back pain and reduced R.O.M)
I still get weird sensations when loading those ribs/intercostals/serratus ant' etc and its almost a year since the last one. |
