So, nearly a week ago a few of us got really shitfaced at my house, which somehow turned into wrestling.
I don't weigh very much compared to a couple of my friends and I got my ass tossed a couple times -- One of these times, I met the corner of the couch pretty good with my right side. I had a pretty large bruise the next morning (6" around), but didn't think much of it.
Since then, I have had a dull pain on my side... it actually didn't feel like my ribs, more like the area directly below it (or possibly the underside of my bottom rib?). It has gotten a little worse the past few days, and last night I couldn't sleep on it.
Today I'm at work (on a job site, post-support after re-designing their network), and I coughed. Something wasn't right, and I all of a sudden had this extreme shooting pain, mid-cough. Since that fateful cough, I am in some pretty constant pain: bending over is near-impossible, walking is painful and awkward, applying *any* pressure with my right side hurts like hell (just plugging in a cat5 cable into the patch panel hurts like a bitch).
Hopefully they decide that they don't need my services for too long, because I really want to get this checked out...
Just thought I would share.
Edit: Here is an excersize: Cough, once. Now, prepare to cough. The instant before a cough, you should feel your chest and abs tighten up to brace for the cough. This feeling is what messed my side up. Strange?
