22 Year Old Daughter Cracked 3 Ribs On Her Right

22 year old daughter cracked 3 ribs on her right side in early June slipping and falling down concrete steps. Finally last week she resumed light exercise regime(abs only). Has been fine until earlier this week when she started having a sharp pain in her chest and back. Went back to Dr. to see if ribs may not have healed properly. They took new x-rays and told her they show up as being cloudy on the right side and she has what "looks" like bronchitis even though no symptoms-cough, congestion, fever, etc and doesn't smoke. Prescribed meds for bronchitis. Is this something that we should pursue possibly with a specialist?
