Rib fractures do not affect eating because eating is mainly related to the digestive system such as the throat and the esophagus and digestive tract. Deep breathing or coughing will cause a sudden increase in thoracic mobility, resulting in a slight movement of the fractured end of the rib and localized pain, or an aggravation of the original pain, so that it will be too difficult to cough and expel phlegm, which will easily cause lung infection, shortness of breath and difficulty in breathing. There is no effect on the digestive system. Rib fracture is a stable fracture, as long as the chest belt is given to fix and restrict the activities, the hands and feet are allowed to move, and it is also possible to eat, pay attention to more rest.
