How Can severe Bruised Rib Cage Be Treated?
When I went down south about 3 weeks ago I was getting in the pool and slipped down the ladder and got a huge bruise on my ribs and it went away but 3 weeks later my ribs still hurt... they ache whenever I lay on them or move too much or press on them sometimes. What does this mean?
