Broken Rib? It Hurts!

Last weekend, while visiting a friend’s cabin for the weekend, I managed to fall and land on my side. As I was falling, I tucked my elbow into my side in an effort to break the fall somehow. The next morning it was sore, but not so bad I couldn’t move pretty freely. I just [...]
