Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I fell last Monday on Labor day on my left side. I am 63 and have osteoporosis. I seem to have bruised my left side ribs. I had a restful weekend at a Women's Retreat but today I have done some leaning over in my yard and picking up debris to put in the trash can and dragged out the trash can to the front and am hurting more. Also whenever I cough or sneeze, my ribs hurt so bad. Should I go to the doctor for xrays?
