Suggest Treatment For Bruised Ribs
my fiancé picked up a heavy tv trying to help me move stuff to storage the tv was way to heavy she hurt her left lower ribcage. Took her to her doctors they said she just had gas and wanted her to do a certain movement to release the gas and sent us home. Ok she had pain for 3 months and it went away a little bit. this was last November now we just moved and I hired a moving co, but she is stubourn and moved heavy boxes and containers and is now in more pain than before! I think either she has a hernia or may have bruised her ribs! she is has nausea,pain,under ribcage ??? ps. it s not gas

hello,
I have studied your case and I think she had bruised her muscles and that is causing severe pain in chest and ribs area. I would suggest you to follow these steps.
1.Avoid weight lifting and sudden bending.
2.Tablet Voveron SR one OD or muscle relaxant like Myospaz or Myoril.
3.Hot water fomentation and Brugel local application.
I hope this answer will be useful for you. Let me know if there is any other followup questions.
thanks
