Any doctors about?

If I've ever had an injury like that, it's usually because I've pulled something and that the muscle and bones aren't in sync.

A couple visits to my chiropracter and it's sorted.

Codeine based pain killers do work, but are very addictive! Speaking from experience here. Was prescribed them back when I was 19 (1996) and have only just (last Oct) stopped taking them and that was one of the hardest things I have ever done coming off them!

How'd you get on? Is your doctor well handsome?

Ha ha no he's old and scottish. He said time's the only healer, and if it gets bad try a hot water bottle as well as the pain killers. Its feeling much more comfortable now, for the time being anyway. Thanks all!

Seriously now. I have an alcohol related injury from a while back - i fell awkwardly and managed to pull and twist the muscles down my left rib cage - so my gp said. So she gave me painkillers which i RARELY take. It was much better and i barely felt it, until this morning. Now i'm in agony when i move, cough, sneeze etc.. and i've taken painkillers. How can i make it better?

Drink lots of water, the Doctor told me it makes tissue and muscle swell which stops pain. like a cushion between joints i think?.

I drink about 4L of water a day, and no more bad back.

fingers crossed on a quick recovery hayee!!.
