The head will feel better tomorrow (3rd-4th day). The ribs are just a pain in the ass. I just cracked one last month. Sneezing is brutal, and for me getting out of bed was literally a 5 minute process. Just go easy and don't push it. You'll heal up ok.

The ribs below the scalpula can take over 8 weeks to heal to be comfortable.
I broke 4 ribs 2 years ago in a fall, took a fall about 8' onto concrete.
Was not diagnosed for several weeks as the initial Xrays won't show the ribs under the scalpula.
Take vicodin, don't breath hard, you should be able to sleep.
I could drive a truck after a few weeks, but movement hurt for at least 8 weeks.
Good luck.

Xrays were done from every conceivable most painful angle you can imagine.
The doc gave me Percs and I can't take a full breath even if I wanted to.
But I do have a Mac surfster on the way!  |
