Sounds like you may have a broken rib? Or two…..

There’s very little to show for it externally and it’s not too tender to touch either. I also still pretty much have full range of motion too. Most of the pain seems to be internal. It seems to hurt inside my chest and inside my up back – So I reckon I have some minor cardiac or pulmonary contusion – In other words heart and / or lung bruising. Makes sense really as slamming into something and suddenly coming to a complete stop is only going to make your internal organs crash into your rib cage and therefore bruise them.

Don’ think there’s much I can do about it though so I’ll just have to wait for it to get better. I’m not sure if it’ll be OK for my Quadrathlon on Sunday though. As Anna pointed out, this sort of thing is exactly why I stopped windsurfing while I was competing in Triathlons!

Al.
