RE: Dear Diary: The Pain Killer Helped Me A Lot With My Rib Pain

in #health5 years ago

That's too bad that you can't find a comfortable position to sleep in. This is also similar to what a pregnant woman would feel in her eighth or ninth month of pregnancy. The only way is to sleep on the right side. Sleeping on the back leads to excruciating pain because the weight of the baby presses down on the spinal cord. Pregnant women cannot sleep on the left side due to the gravity pushing on the heart. And obviously they cannot lie on the tummy! The only and last resort is the right side. We have to train ourselves or force it to happen and it's either uncomfortable for 2~3 months or just irritating. It's the most uncomfortable feeling in the whole world. I've never broken a rib before though. But oh the many sleepless nights.... I hope your rib gets better faster.

Yes I now understand how pregnant women just are like having one of their foot next to the grave particularly those that are so sensitive in pregnancy @gungho
