Dear patient
Your mother is given medications for pain relief ( astradol , naproxen ) and antacid (soprano ). This are effective partially. Movement at fracture site has to be prevented for total pain relief. This can be done by wearing chest belt tight at the level of fracture ribs. This serves two purpose 1. Reducing pain 2. Early union of fracture by preventing movement. You need to buy appropriate size from the market and use it for one month and she will be fine. All the best.
