[quote=Anonymous]I am currently on day 12 of covid. I tested + on 12/17, and did a virtual appt with my primary. We decided on prescription cough meds instead of paxlovid as I tend to get very bad bronchitis with all viruses. On 12/26 I went to urgent care due to severe rib pain. Turns out that I missed their callback. I have a displaced rib fracture. Waiting to get callback from my primary, but they recommended I see primary or ortho. Called around to orthos in the meantime, but none will see rib patients. It may be that there is no treatment but time, but has anyone had to seek treatment if a rib fracture is displaced? Just wonder how it can heal if the bone is not lined up. Hoping to avoid ER. Pain is very bad when coughing, and hard to sleep as there is no comfortable position. Covid symptoms much improved.
