Ribs Hit On Falling Causing Pain While Coughing. How To Heal It?
I was carrying a package, hit the trailer hitch on my husbands truck and fell down landing on the right side rib area. I do not have any problem breathing, no sharp pains just sore. I have been icing. It does hurt if I cough. Should I do anymore than that.

Hello,
Thank you for using Healthcaremagic.
I read your question and understood your concern.
I do not think that you should do more than that . Just take some pain medication according to your pain level.
I wish you quick recovery.
