[|Human|] I m a healthy 35 years old woman, Christmas Eve I fell on my rib (under my right breast) and heard a pop. Next day i was fine, no pain, nothing but 2 day later i woke up with a stabbing pain at this same spot and still have it . I feel relieve when i sleep on that side, it seems to relieve my pain. But if i touch a single point it hurts like crazy. What could it be? I have no bruise, i don t see any bump and it feels all in place when i touch.
[|AI|]  His would suggest you to take an x-ray chest to rule out any rib fractures. Broken rib can be present even without a bruise or swelling. Painkillers should be taken to reduce the discomfort. You can also apply an ice pack to the area to reduce pain and decrease swelling. Just make sure you wrap it in a thin towel first. Hope that was helpful. Let me know if I can assist you further.
