What Causes Breast Pain While Breathing After Having An ATV Accident?
I was in a ATV accident 4 days ago. Was pinned under a 750 lb ATV for approximately 20 seconds. Went to ER. Had a CAT scan. No internal bleeding & nothing broken. I have severe bruising on my stomach, upper part of my legs & on both breasts. Everytime i breathe i have pain on the left side of my left breast (where there is a severe bruise). Should i be concerned?

Hi
You likely have one or more fractured ribs on that side.
In general these just have to heal on their own but if you haven't had rib detail x-rays, I would order those
