Any ideas to manage pain for a teacher with a broken right hand and lower left rib?

I broke my right hand about 5 weeks ago and my left rib 4 days ago. I am a first grade teacher so I can't really take off. It hurts to do anything, if I move my left arm my rib shifts, if i try to do anything with my right hand then it hurts. If anyone has any suggestions to ease the pain I'm all ears!
