Hello my 18 year old daughter rear ended a car a week and a half ago and has been saying her chest is sore. Went to the doctor and they said thought it was bruised.......she was jumping on the trampoline and landed on her butt and said it hurt. I am very worried about this .... the airbags did go off

hi madam. such a collision usually causes injury on chest from steering. with ur question i can interpret that there should not be fracture in the ribs. there should be some muscular injury inside with bruises on skin. u should use anti-inflammatory medicines along with some analgesic gels for local application. try to avoid jerks till complete healing. she will be alright soon.
