Does Breast Pain Caused By A Fall Need Further Attention?
My significant other fell down about a week ago, she fell on her left side on her breast. When she got home she immediately put ice on it every 20 minutes on the hour. Then the second day she went ice and heat. It's been about seven days later and its better then the first few days but her breast still hurts. If she sneezes or coughs it hurts, I was wondering if she broke a rib behind the breast do you have any answers?
