Suggest Remedy For Pain Between Armpit And Upper Rib
I was hit from behind while our two cars were going less than 5 MPH. However, my breast--which has an implant in it--hurt right away. My doctor s office had closed by the time I got home. Now, the pain is harsh. It s directly above and toward my armpit and into my upper rib. What could this accident have done to me? What can I do to make it until morning? Should I see my plastic surgeon (first implants in 1979; replaced 6/13) or my Internist in the morning?
