What Causes Pain And Pressure In The Chest After Fracturing A Rib?
I fractured a rib 2 days ago and am feeling bloated . I m on acetominaphin extra strength 2 tablets every 6 hours, and sulfamethoxasol tmpds 1 tab every 12 hours for an unrelated infection. Could the medicines be causing the bloating, or could it be related to the rib fracture?
