My friend had an accident 1 mont& half later she thinks her sternum is cracked. shouldnt she have known before now?

Some injuries do not present themselves in a sever enough way at the time of an accident. My son broke a bone in his wrist during a soccer game in May and it wasn't until we were golfing in July that he knew something was wrong. If your friend is having pain, she should go to the doctor to be examined.

Good luck. Html.

Yes. She would most certainly know that her sternum was cracked as soon as it happened.

Maybe she is having problems breathing. Just be glad she figured it out now.

30 years ago, a friend (son of my brother-in-law) was at home writing a letter with a broken thumb he didn't know was broken until his dad came home and MADE him go to the doctor.

A while ago I got into a pretty bad car accident that cracked my sternum slightly. When I went to the hospital that day, they speculated it was merely bruising. An xray a few months later revealed a cracked sternum.

Pain was never evident or overwhelming with the exception of pressure being applied, just an incessant popping sound when twisting or turning. Often times when around friends and silence manifests, I twist, which in turn produces a loud, distinct popping sounds whereby everyone comments on it. This has consisted for two and a half years now.

I had suspected that it would of healed by now, but it looks like its here to stay. Lately, I've been experiencing a benign shortness of breath that I attribute to the sternum trauma. Has anyone experienced anything similar?

Do you think this requires medical attention or is something one just puts up with?

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
