A member asked:
Is it normal to feel fatigued while recovering from multiple rib injury?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: It is normal to feel tired or fatigued after any significant injury. Multiple rib injury is very painful and will also impair your ability to breathe normally; it will hurt to take a deep breath or cough. Taping or stabilization of the chest wall can help if there are rib fractures present.
