I got hit in chest 2 month ago in study table. After one month bruise faded to light brown slowly turning to skin colour. There was tenderness and minor discomfort on bending.Minor discomfort went away but still there is some tenderness on pressing hard into the area and there is some irritation or itching inside Muscles and rope or string like feeling in injured muscles.I do not know whether this is nerve injury or blood vessel is blocked or blood has become semi solid mass instead of getting absorbed into body or soft tissue injury which is still healing after 2 month and so its itching.I have taken x ray and it is normal and orthopaedic doctor has prescribed vitamin supplements and pain killer.Will it take six months for pain and itching to go away or this is something which will not resolve because I have checked in Google chest Injury heal in only six to seven week and in my case its two months still there is tenderness in the area injured and in some rare cases minor rib pain.
