my ribs hurts like ******* crazy, cuz my friend who is like 6 feet tall and weighs more than me, bumped me, and another girl exactly like that bumped me. I can't lean on anything, or hold anything really heavy. Bruised or broken??

Also, I can't bend down, and when I walk it's more like a waddle.

Go get an x-ray asap. There's no sense in wondering when an x-ray is the only certainity. My sister fell off of her horse, broke her rib and it punctured her lung. It can be serious, so don't take a chance.
I dropped a drawer on my foot Sunday, thought it was bruised, had an x-ray today, Tuesday, and it's a severe fracture that may require surgery. Please go get an x-ray. Hope your rib is bruised, surely hope you feel better soon.

Ask a doctor. I'm uessing bruised, b/c if ti was broken I don't know if you could walk. But, like I said, ASK A PRO!

bruised, lay down for at least three days, and take Motrin or other anti- inflammatory drugs, the only thing to help the pain, and don't try pain killers, they just hide the pain and you don't know it but your doing more damage.....have fun that s<>t hurts
