It hurts more today than it did six days ago. What did the doctor say? I will tell you what he said. I broke two ribs fifty-one years ago and went to the doctor who told me they would eventually heal, take two tylenol when the pain is too much to bear without them. He charged me for the advice.
So certainly I did not go to the doctor this time. Who said I don't learn from experience?
I am old and apparently brittle but I am not stupid.

Yup, nothing the doctor can do for a cracked rib. Or a broken toe, either, in most cases. I've had both.
Wisdom is wonderful to possess. Why is it so expensive?
Holy carp - your rib just snapped? I can't even imagine.
Jim, they are pretty good when "there's a pill for that." Oh, yes a pill for the pain in this case. ;-)
Chuck, it comes dearly, indeed. Sometimes the price is higher than mere cash.
Grace, sounds fishy, doesn't it? True though.
Wow! I hope your rib mends quickly.
Yow! Take care.
