Two dislocated ribs - ask me anything
Just don't make it too difficult, though. The vicodin is kicking in....

1. How'd you dislocate your ribs?
:(

I hope you'll be better soon. :hug:

4. Would you believe -
picking up a 30 pack of beer. :eyes: And I didn't even get to drink any - I was stocking the shelf. My chiropractor has popped them back in but it's still VERY sore and I'm out of work until next week.

I'm the only person I know who can do things like this. ~sigh~

10. I just broke my pinky trying to catch a laptop falling off a table. It
is killing me, and its just a pinky. Total wuss I am. I can only imagine your discomfort.

3. Ouch. Does dislocated mean that tendons are also torn?

6. The tendons apparently seem okay
The ribs are back in place now, I'm to ice, take anti-inflammatories and let it all rest. The vicodin was my idea. :evilgrin:

8. I didn't even know you /could/ dislocate ribs. Hope you feel better soon.
Oh yeah... um... uh... oh, here's one: If you put the batteries into a flashlight backwards, does it absorb light?

9. Ummm...... purple?
I think.....

Well, probably most people couldn't dislocate their ribs on a bet. I seem to always do things the hard way, however.
