    Broken rib?

    by RedRider713 » Thu Jul 19, 2007 11:50 am

    Hey guys, just yesterday I was riding at Latrobe and i went through a corner, about to double a 6-pack, and my bike bogged and stalled due to a fouled plug. It locked up and i went over the bars. After gettig up and riding off, I noticed slight pains on the left side of my chest, around my ribs. I dont think anythings broken because I slept on my left side, but what could be causing this? All help is appreciated. Thanks guys.

    It also appears that the left side of my ribcage is sticking out farther than the left, though its not poking through the skin.

    Sounds like the cartilage between the ribs is torn.
    Hurts like hell but definitely get it checked out by the doctor.

    I know, my son jumped on my chest when he was 3.
    Took 3 months to heal.

    Thank God he wasn't 4.
