I work in a job that requires me to type and use a computer but shattered my elbow quite badly at the weekend slipping on ice and now need an operation. I probably wont be able to work for an extended period. I know you don't get sick pay under normal circumstances when you're self-employed but wondered if there's any support available if you're physically injured and out of action for an extended period? I'm lucky to be getting the Covid grant but it's not enough on its own as it was based on my first three years in business. I made a tiny amount in my first and second years and only made a small profit for the first time in my 3rd year.
I'm on strong pain killers so am drowsy at the moment but will reply to any responses when I can.

Self-employed and broke my arm: anyone know if there's any government support in such situations?
