What Do Bruised Ribs And Pain Indicate?

I have pain for about a year under the breastbone by the ribs--the doctor thought it to be bruised ribs and it would heal, so now if i press the multiple areas under the breast under the skin and on the right side i feel some hardness and if i really press it hurts on a scale of 1-10 about 6-7 I thought this was a free service--is there a fee? If so how much?
