We love it when an injured character winces as they try (unsuccessfully) to sit up. It's a popular trope for a reason.
I would also like to draw your attention to when it hurts to lay down. Yes, they'll definitely be more comfortable lying down than sitting up, or maybe they're so exhausted they could barely stay upright even if they wanted to. But getting there? Maybe they have a friend there to help with an hand behind their back, maybe they have to lean on their arms and try to slowly ease themselves down without pulling or jarring anything too much. Either way though, there are winces and grimaces and sharp intakes of breath, and muscles shaking and tensing and maybe suddenly giving out on them. And at the end, finally sinking into the mattress or makeshift bed, their jaw is still clenched and eyes squeezed shut and breath coming in short gasps and body rigid for several moments afterward as they wait for the pain to fade away.

I was meant to be drawing myself, but was listening to Welcome to Night Vale and my pen slipped.
These are drawn from episodes 26 to 33.
I love Cecil and Carlos. <3
(I couldn't decide if I liked having colours or not, so you get both.)

We all love when a caretaker or companion reaches out to touch some uninjured part of whumpee's body, hoping the contact will provide some comfort.
Allow me to also present: Reaching out to touch the injury itself, gentle fingers brushing feather-light over bandages or bare broken skin, even though fine tendrils of pain glow briefly to life in their wake.
A gesture of concern: You are pained and weakened, don't push yourself beyond what you can do.
A gentle plea: You are hurt, let me tend it, let me help you, let us take care of you.
An acknowledgement: I know you are in pain, you do not need to hide it from me.
A reassurance: It will mend, with time and care, and the pain will fade and you will regain your strength; and you will have friends by your side the whole way.
(As always for me, I am intending this as platonic and on the whumperless comfort end of the spectrum, but the rest of you are free to do as you wish with it)
