Sternum, Breast Injury, Sharp Pain In Breast On Twisting. Cause Of Concern?
One month ago I was driving at 44 miles per hour and was cut off by a car crossing the main highway.My airbag deployed and I was hit directly in the sternum and left breast . No bones were broken. But I am still having sharp pains in the left breast when I twist or turn certain ways. Should I go back to my doctor or is this something that just takes time to heal itself. What can be done?
