What Causes Pain In The Chest After A Hard Hit?
My daughter 13 years old, was hit in the chest very hard with a kicked soccer ball tonight. She is having much pain when she coughs and laughs. Also, when she straightens back and leans slightly backward. What could be the problem?

Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
It would be advisable for you to get a chest x ray done. Possibilities include rib fracture or lung contusion. If x ray is normal nothing to worry about , give some cold compressions and anti inflammatory tablets.
Don't worry, you will be alright.
Hope I have solved your query.
Wish you good health. Thanks.
