Suggest Treatment For Pain In Upper Back And Chest Post Injury

I had a bad fall the other day, I landed forward on my upper chest and right arm and shoulder. This is 3 days later and it feels just as bad as the day I fell. It hurts in my upper back and upper area of my chest on the right side. I haven t been to the doctor as of yet, thinking maybe I should. Even taking a long deep breath makes it hurt.

Hi
Welcome to healhcaremagic
After going through your query I concluded that you have got injury to your left chest. It is third day and it stated paining again. Specially deep breath is painful. Treatment of it is rest and analgesic such as ibuprofen for pain relief. Vitamin B and C is helpful in recovery. You can get your chest x ray to further investigate it. You can discuss your doctor about it. Hope your query get answered. If you have any clarification then please don't hesitate to write to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.
