Severe Rib contusions

Hey everyone. I am miserable. Last Thursday someone hugged me while picking me up, and I felt crunch, crunch, crunch. This sent me to the ER.
No breaks just rib contusions. Today is day 5 and today hurt MORE than day 1.
I was sleeping in the recliner and that was good. I spent the past two nights laying down and I am wondering if that made things worse. The ice feels a lot better than the moist heat that I tried.

CAN someone please, PLEASE tell me when I can expect to feel somewhat better? I live alone, and doing ANYthng is hard. I almost passed out in the shower this morning from the pain, but at least tonight that is a WEE and I mean WEE bit better. I am taking the percocet and opana that I am on, on a regular basis for this pain as well.

I did not KNOW that rib contusions could ever, EVER hurt this much:(
Thanks to anyone that can answer my question.
Madison
