What Causes Swelling And Pain In Ribs After An Injury?

Hi, I ran into a friend a week and a half ago. He s a big guy six foot five ish, and I m five foot one, and his hip hit the front of my ribs. The pain was sore, and there was slightly swelling, it hurts on breathing, coughing, sneezing, and especially when lying down and moving at night. The pain has gotten worse over the last week, and is really really bad now, almost constant, especially on movement. The swelling is slightly larger, but there is no external bruising.
