Chest Injury
26 days ago I got hit by table when I slipped. I contacted one general physician doctor and they said blood is getting observed 3 weeks ago. The bruise started faiding its colour 2 week ago and pain in that area go reduced. But, still I am getting some minor discomfort and pain occasionally although minor. The pain seems to trigger in other directions too sometimes. I still have feelings of injury 4 weeks later. Doctor said it's muscle contusion and asked to take pain killer but I didn't took since pain was minor. Will it take one month more to take normal or I have to contact other doctor?
