I have broken a total of 12 of them over the past three years - I have a lung disease and I break them from coughing. Unfortunately there is nothing that can be done to help the healing process. Try not to lift, twist or bend.

My doctor mentioned thatthere is a new shot that you can get that really helps with the pain. Fortunately I have not broken a rib since having heard of this new shot. FTR the only pain med that ever helped to alleviated my pain is dilaudid but it will have you shitting coke cans after a day or so.

No, the OT has assured the op that there is nothing a doctor can do. You must be mistaken.

OP, a doctor will confirm your hunch and TD confirmed diagnosis. And he/she will give you something for the pain if it's really bad.
