I think I broke a RIB or two on Saturday night; I'm struggling to breathe deeply - something clicks in my side when I do manage to catch my breath - it hurts like hell; is it broken?
To set the scenario, I was at a Medieval fancy dress party, they had a balance beam set up for having pillow fights on, only we had a sword fight, being dressed as Knights. I got knocked off and the other guy landed on top of me with his knee in my chest from about 4/5 ft high

What kind of a knight allows ones self to have a picture taken whilst one is clearly not fit for pictures
Arthor will not be impressed.

I think your ex has possibly stolen a rib.

you will know if it's broken, you won't be able to move or breathe or do anything. If so, go to hospital
