I swung a bat playing softball and felt like I pulled a muscle - 3 days later still a little sore but much better. I now have a very sizable bruise about 6 inches across the left side of my abdomen about an inch wide. No other symptoms and the soreness has resided daily Jim
As a first line management you can take analgesics like Paracetamol or Aceclofenac for pain relief. Drink plenty of water to keep yourself hydrated. If symptoms persist, it is better to consult a physician and get evaluated.
