Liver rib trauma
Fell 2 weeks ago and had trauma to front/bottom right side of ribs and immediately under. Hurt a lot when it happened (7/10) & knocked the wind out of me. Was standing on chair and fell so back of chair drove under bottom of rib cage. Since pain is dull & constant (4/10) remaining unchanged for 2 weeks. No jaundice, blood in urine/stool. Just steady pain. Is it normal for pain to go on this long without significant improvement?

Get x-ray chest done to look for any hidden fracture in the rib.srapping of the affected area to decrease the movement helps in relieving the pain .a common analgesic may also help.with time all rib injuries heal but may take longer time
