[|Human|] I fell and hit my chest between my breast on a large wooden cabinet. It feels like I may have bruised it. It quite painful and difficult to breathe. What steps should I take to relieve the pain? It don t feel any irregularity when I check that might suggest a break.
[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your situation and problem. You are having blunt chest trauma. Musculoskeletal injury is the cause for your symptoms. But better to get done chest x-ray to rule out internal damage like rib fracture, pneumothorax and Pulmonary contusions. If chest x-ray is normal then no need to worry much, you are having mostly musculoskeletal pain. Try to follow these steps for better symptomatic relief. 1.  Avoid heavyweight lifting and strenuous exercise. 2. Avoid bad postures in sleep and painful movements. 3. Start painkiller and muscle relaxant. 4. Apply warm water pad on affected site. You will mostly improve in 5-6 days.
