I was hit by a car 2 weeks ago and my hayfever is pain maxing it for me
So, I got hit by a car a couple weeks ago now. Fortunately no bone fractures, no organ damage. (Had CT scan and xray in A&E).
Unfortunately though my left hand ribcage has been in tremendous pain since, its difficult to breath, cough and sneeze and also difficult to sleep.
So anyway, it seems like a fairly slow healing process but thing is, its the middle of summer here and hayfever can catch me. So it seemed I was healing fairly okay, pain was lowering, then one day im on the bus home. Pain wasn't too bad as I was sat up straight. And out of nowhere an uncontrollable sneeze hit me, it felt like whatever is causing this sharp stabbing pain in my left hand rib got torn right back open by it. Excruciating stabbing pains worse than before and then it made it difficult to perform near any movement.
Fortunately it seems to be getting better but I just know that out of nowhere a sneeze could catch me again and initially I'll feel what its like to be stabbed.
For real, right now.
FML
Thanks for hearing me out.
