Why Is My Body Side Sore And Painful Post Injury?

Hi, I got hit on my side when surfing by another surf board. It was very sore for a few days after but did improve slightly but in the last few days the pain has returned and is tender to touch and unbearable when I cough or sneeze. It happened nearly a month ago & while I understand it can take weeks to heal is there any reason as to why it has suddenly got worse?
