Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I got kicked on the lower ribs playing football, four days have passed and its very tender I also get terrible spasms when I stretch or make any movement, the worst problem is when I m lying down & then try and get up - spasms are very painful. Thanking you for your co-operation. Andrew
The symptoms seem to be related to muscle spasms.I suggest using a muscle relaxant such as Baclofen three times a day. I also suggest using magnesium supplement for muscle relaxation.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
