What Do You Suggest For The Pain In Ribs After An Injury When On Advil?

My 12 year old grandson was playing hockey and slid into goal post..He says his ribs hurt. Should we take him to hospital tonight to get checked out or wait and see how is doing tomorrow? My daughter gave him advil when he got to the bench. Thank you.

Hi
Welcome to Healthcare-Magic
Greetings of the day

If there is no difficulty in breathing then there is no cause for concern.
Local Application of hot water fomentation will also be helpful.
Take Care
