Back from the Chiropractor
I went to Dr. Dave this afternoon. I told him what had happened, in some detail so he could have a picture of the mechanics and forces that were at play. He then had me lie prone (facedown) on the adjustment table and palpated down my ribs. THREE ribheads were out! He told me "this is gonna hurt like a sonuvagun" and then proceeded to adjust them, popping them back into proper alignment. He also said it is possible I may have some slight cartilage damage in the front. He advised me to keep icing the areas and taking Aleve. I have 2 more appointments to make sure (one on Saturday morning, 1 more on Monday afternoon). I am going to go to class tomorrow night, but have no plans to roll. Just observe and try to pick up some technique. I am still sore, but it is different, and I feel like I am (hopefully) on the mend.
