General & Family Physician,  's  Response
with such presentation, i would first rule of serious complications by taking CT abdomen plain scan if there could be an internal bleeding or any blunt injury by the rib fracture. if everything is fine i would suggest you to take tab.paracetmol and ibuprofen combination as a pain killer and take rest for two days. i would suggest you to consult a general surgeon regarding your complaints .
hope i answered your question.
