Worst part is there's really nothing medically you can do - it just has to heal on its on. Sleeping on a couch helps cause it limits tossing and turning. Also, if you feel a sneeze coming on, tuck in your arm and lean against a wall to reduce how much your chest can expand with the explosion.

In other news, got a bolognese simmering in the crock-pot for dinner tonight.
