Dislocated Rib - Monday, December 29, 2008 9:55 AM ( #1 )
So.....has anyone else ever had this issue?

I was at my Jiu-Jitsu class and after I got done rolling, I went to sit up and felt a pop.  I pulled my shirt up, and my rib was obviously pushing out against my skin.  It didn't hurt too bad, but I lied down and put some ice on it and watched a few more people spar.  When I got back up I felt another pop, and my chest looked normal again, so I decided to go home and relax for a while.  When I was getting into my car, it popped again, this time it started to hurt.  So I went to the hospital, and they did a couple x-rays and said nothing was broken, and to use ice and ibprofin for the swelling.  It has been a week now, and I still have swelling and the rib is still poking out.  I am going to the chiropractor today because I have heard good things about them being able to fix this issue.

I am just curious if anyone else has had this happen to them, and what the recovery time is like.

Thanks
