How Can Soreness Of Chest And Painful Breathing Be Treated?
My 15 year old daughter went roller skating last night and she fell on her back. Now she is complaing about the right side of her chest being sore and her right side hurting and she says it hurts to laugh or take deep breaths or even move. She can walk just fine though. She said when she fell she heard her back pop then she heard something crack. What should I do?

Hello,
Your daughter could have fractured a rib as described by the symptoms. Please take her to the emergency and get her evaluated.
Hope that helps.
