I was hustling back to get my dads putter he left at last home. Well I tend to drive like a moron, but I cranked the throttle and made a sharp turn down a little mound. All of a sunned the cart flips over the side on top of me. I couldn’t move much less breath. Well turns out I broke four ribs. Any advice on helping out the healing process?

Have you considered sending the video of you Grave Digger-ing a golf cart in to America’s Funniest Home Videos?

It’s all pain control. Stick with Tylenol if at all possible. NSAIDs can sometimes slow bone healing.

May be worthwhile to get an incentive spirometer to make sure you are taking good deep breaths. Don’t want to develop any pneumonia.
