Usually about 3 weeks. Depends on how you broke it, and how gentle you are with it while healing.

I had 2 broken ribs and it took a year before it was completely healed, but it was about 2 months before it didn't fuck up my entire day.

Probably not, but you might not feel it mid coitus, endorphins and all, but you definitely would a couple hours later. I cracked a rib a couple of months ago, I have some first hand experience with the suckage that you are going through. |

Also, did your doc tell you to make sure you take deep breaths a couple times an hour so you don't get pneumonia? Doing so hurts baaaaaad.

Yeah, but luckily the rib is high enough that breathing deeply isn't too bad. You are lucky in that case. I have done it on a few occasions. Two ribs on my right side when I was a teenager. Hurt like hell, but I did a mission trip anyways, and worked my ass off. Second time was cracked ribs on my left side, it hurt, but not nearly as bad. My other injuries at that time made it seem not very bad. Third time was my left side while playing football on the beach. Hurt like hell, but decided to keep playing, and aggravated it even more. Ended up with injuries to my front left, and back left. That was hell. Hurt to breathe, hurt to walk, hurt to sleep (and I couldn't find any comfortable position). Basically everything hurt, and it seemed like forever for me to get better. Even now, years later, the spot on the ribs were I got injured is still tender when touched. |

Mine took 3 weeks for the pain to start easing. 6 weeks total.
Never went to a witch doctor. DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT watch any funny movies!! I damn near killed myself laughing while watching Wild Hogs. |

A motorcycle accident fractured two ribs on my left side along with a fractured left leg. The leg was an inconvenience but the ribs were the pits. Man I had to be careful if someone told a really funny joke, if it was a good one and I laughed really hard it would bring tears to my eyes it hurt those ribs so bad. The first 90 days were the worst, but it took 5-6 months to get completely over the fractured ribs.

Mine took about 2 months before the pain was tolerable and didn't greatly affect my daily life.
