Suggest Remedy For Pain Under The Breast Caused By A Fall
I fell on Sunday night and hit my right side just under my breast on the side of the tub. I heard a crunching noise and it hurt. Each day the pain has been getting worse. I can t breathe deep, can t sleep, can t roll over and it hurts to raise my right arm all the way up. What should I do.
