Pain is more intense after a rib fracture because the ribs play a large role in thoracic stability and the thorax is critical for respiratory movements. Respiratory movement is always present, so the pain is more pronounced after a rib fracture with respiratory movement. In addition to the intense pain that is evident after a rib fracture, there is also pressure and pain at the fracture site, as well as pain that increases during changes in position. In case of multiple rib fractures or multiple fractures of multiple ribs, there will be the appearance of paradoxical respiratory movements, as well as possible combination of blood and fluid accumulation in the chest cavity, contusions of the lungs, which may be life-threatening in serious cases. Therefore, if a rib fracture is suspected, it is recommended to visit a regular hospital, and if the pain is severe you can take oral pain medication and apply antibacterial drugs if necessary, which can also prevent intra-pulmonary infections.
