sore ribs

(6 discussions)

I hurt my lower ribs three weeks ago and the pain is only a little better.
How long does it take for bruised intercostal muscles to repair and is there anything that I can do to help speed up the process?

    My upper ribs and sternum area hurt so bad that I can hardly move. I can’t recall anything that I could”ve done to cause this. The pain has been here for 2 days now. It hurts to touch them,even a little to breathe.
    Any advice on what it could be?
