Ever pull a muscle?

[yammerhammer]

... on your rib cage? I sneezed (yes, sneezed) the other day and instantly
got a sharp pain on my rib cage. Went away after awhile but every time I sneezed or cough, I could feel tightness on my ribs. Well last night I sneezed
and it felt like I had just been shot! It dropped me to my knee and made me squirm around like a little girl for a minute. I walked around a bit to try and shake it off. It dulled off after a bit but certain movement, sneezing or coughing puts me right back on my knees. OUCH!

Anyone ever have something like this. I though I could deal with a little pain until this. Heck, I can hardly get out of bed or in/out of the car. Sum Beotch!

Are you sure you didn't dislocate a rib in your sleep? That will make sneezing hurt like hell.

Everyone pulls THAT muscle and yes, they do get longer but only for a few minutes.

Not sure but the pain is on my lower rib, in front.

you ever pull that big muscle that runs along your spine? that HURTS! you cam hardly breathe if you pull that thing. ive pulled it in wrestling a couple times and had to wrestle with it....that sucked! whenever it would get pulled i would go home every day, pop some pills and lay in bed. thats about all i could do.

Yammer I did it along time ago probably 2 years ago, and to this day every time I sneeze it hurts like a mofo! Almost like a sharp cramp.


BTW about the back muscle pulling, yes if you golf you are bound to do it, and that hurts ten times worse then the rib muscles.

gold is for pansies!!!!

apply heat packs to the area that will help.

bruised my ribs this summer water skiing and it hurt like hell for a week until i went in for pain pills. Probably didn't help to go dirt biking 3 at about day four after i wadded in the water.

Cycle hot and cold on the injured muscle. I am currently nursing a pulled muscle in my shoulder and neck. My 200 pound mother in law fell in the parking lot of the local SuperStore and broke her ankle on December 23rd. Without hesitation I picked her up and carried her back to the truck to go to the hospital. OF course with all the snow we've been getting I haven't been able to rest it very much with all the shovelling going on.

Sounds like a rotated rib... Go see a chiropractor.. Will be fixed immediately.. If you go to the reg dr, they will just pump you full of drugs...

And yes - my wife pulls my muscle every night

 

[snopropanther]

pulled a hamstring then a week later tore it. currently have a pulled muscle in my back.

just ice it, take some advil and dont do anything to keep pulling it.


just be glad its not torn. thats an ordeal in itself.

could be anything from a pulled intercostal muscle to a rotated rib. use ice at first to keep inflammation down(use only for 15 min-then wait at least 1 hr before doing it again)

I seperated my sternum snowboarding after wiping out ona jump I was clearly going too fast for haha. I landed it, but hard and then I ended up sitting basically. Didnt notice anything til I got up and stretched, and my ribs clicked. It hurt for about a month only when it would 'pop' out, which didnt hurt, but popping it back in sure did! Good as new now.

DONT go snowboarding the next week after cause it sure as hell hurts wiping out! haha.

Try not to sneeze or cough? Thats an adventure in itself.

I had the same thing happen.
Cracked my sternum and ripped a bib loose from my sternum also.
Boy did that suck the big one.
Sneeze or cough and it hurt like a MF'er
The clicking from the cracked sternum when you breath feels really odd also.
As far as pulling my muskel, not lately.

Last summer I crashed on my MX bike off a double. Knocked myself out for a short time and cough up blood and my shoulder hurt like hell. Figured I would just walk it off, but a few days later I was doing something outside and turned a certain way and felt a pop in my ribs, could barely move let alone breath. Went to the ER and did the X-rays. Turns out I dislocated my shoulder, bruised a lung, and fractured a rib and that pop was the bone seperating. I couldn't cough or sneeze for at least a month. And sitting up to get out of bed hurt like hell. And I had to drive with my left hand all the time cause it hurt to hold my right hand on the wheel. Dr gave me some codine and said to take it easy and sell the bike. Ha.
