8 days ago, my boyfriend gave me a bear hug from behind, causing excruciating pain. An X-ray showed no broken ribs, but the pain persists and is uncomfortable, feeling like a huge ball in my right side that occasionally pops. The pain is felt along my right side and sometimes in my belly, especially when I move, cough, or have a bowel movement. Should I be worried? Will my body return to normal? Should I seek more medical advice?
