What Causes Severe Pain In Upper Abdominal Area Post An Injury?

I fell yesterday down some stairs and landed on my knee and stomach. I have aches and pains, but noticing that I have lots of pain when I move around top of abdominal area. This could not be ribs? Or could it be just bruising within my abdominal area?
