Strangely enough it was during my PT session....
Simply an accident; my fault; not the therapists'.
Bad news is I have either broken or cracked three ribs. I lost my balance and fell full bore against the arm of an old fashioned metal office chair.
Unfortunately I did this to the "floaters" which are hard to avoid moving around. Moving and coughing is still agony. I know from previous experience that they cannot really do much. Current practice is not to wrap you up, but just let them heal. I have not been to the ortho and probably won't unless something really bad happens.
I went to an out of town wedding this weekend and had to walk a lot in the airport and at the wedding and reception.....I am beat up.
Tomorrow is a rest day for sure.
