How to know if you have a broken rib
Experiencing pain in your chest doesn’t necessarily mean that your rib is broken. Cracked ribs can be painful, but are less dangerous than broken ribs. The pain associated with broken ribs usually happens when you:
- Press on the affected area
- Twist your body
- Take a deep breath
Chest pain after a car accident can be caused by a number of injuries, some of them life-threatening. Always get it checked out by a medical professional to protect your health and injury claim.
Some common broken rib injury complications include:
- Torn or punctured aorta
- Punctured lung
- Lacerated kidneys, liver or spleen
- Pneumonia
