Be careful how you cough...

Re: Be careful how you cough...
About 20 years ago, my mom was driving in the car(just her and me), and she sneezed, causing a disc to rupture.
THIS is why we don't hold in our sneezes people.. I prefer my vertebral discs where they are .. Sheesh!
Hope your back feels better soon!

Re: Be careful how you cough...
Crazy posts. My girlfriend has bronchitis, and has been coughing like mad. I'll tell her to take it easy. She's been a mess for days. On the other hand, the narcotic cough syrup she got makes her quite pleasent

well I waited too long too go to the doctor to begin with...then when I went to go to bed one night I could hardly move..so I decided I better go to the hospital.
They gave me Tussionex and an antibiotic...the tussionex helped the cough but they thought I had only pulled a muscle and sent me on my way...a week later I was still in MAJOR pain so I went to my doc and she sent me out for a rib series...and later that day they called me and said I had 2 broke ribs.
The problem I had was convincing the doc that I really had a problem and I wasn't just looking to get a few pain pills. That and they seem to think I got hit...in the ribs causing them to break.
Like I am gonna let somebody get a rib shot in on me??? pshhhh...not!

Haha, I can just imagine that having broken ribs would make you miserably sore.

Funny,
They mentioned to me that you can break ribs coughing when I was in there. 4 hours in the ER I wanted to die, sadly even after all the heavy pain meds I'm on the back is still zinging like a you know what. Nice to know I'm not the only one with an odd ball story

yea it is actually kinda funny.
They are sending me to get a CT done tomorrow and then they want me to get some lab work done.

It is really more annoying than anything!
I am a pretty loud person and very active and I am sooooo limited now!
I can't do jack spit.

They said it may take like 6-8 weeks to heal.
