Rib injury

Hi, I was in a car accident a couple of days ago and I hit my rib cage on the middle panel during impact. I went to the hospital, they took x-rays and first said that there is just a fracture. I called today and they had the x-rays re-examined and said that there is no fracture.
I thought it was just bruised from the impact, but yesterday as I was getting up, I felt my rib pop out of place and the pain was excruciating.
I’m not sure what to do now or who I should go see. Everything I’ve read simply said that the best thing to do for any rib injuries is just to rest and breathe normally. Any other advice for me?

    Sometimes that happens to me too. I think it is because of my bad posture. It helps for me to lay down for a while.
