Suggest Treatment For Pain In Lower Ribs

I fell at the gym and landed on the side of a bench on my lower ribs toward the back. I have quite a bit of pain but assumed nothing much can be done if bruised or fractured. I have slit of swelling in the abdomen since then though. Could somthing else be wrong? Day 5 and it s still there.

Orthopaedic Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi,

Get your xray of chest AP view done and send me the report.

Till then you can take aceclofenac + serratiopeptidase combination three times a day by prescription of your family doctor.

Avoid playing games and gym for about 21 days.

I hope you have got your answer.

Thanks.

Dr.Singh.
