my husband was getting on a dump truck, and because of rain, after going up two steps to get into the drivers seat, he slipped and fell and his left side. His ribs hurt, about a 6 or 7 pain level when he moves, and hard to take a breath in. This occurred last Saturday. He s diabetic also, although I m not sure this would matter for this situation. he has not seen a Dr. for this yet, and I just found out about this this week.
Hello, It might be due to conditions like Costco Chat Doctor.  As a first line management, you can take analgesics like Diclofenac or Tramadol for pain relief. If symptoms persist better to consult a physician and get evaluated. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
