Guys i was grappling training and after i finished the round i felt a pain in my chest and if i breathed deeply my ribs hurt alot, the next day there was lots of popping and pain everytime i moved my arm on that direction, i went to the ER and they X-rayed it and said its not broken so i went home and rested, the third day everything felt much better and it doesnt pop or crack anymore but there is a bump where the pain was and it still hurts locally.
I went back and today i got a CT-scan to see if the rib seperated from the cartilage, tomorow morning i will find out what happened.
I am very pissed about this injury because i have to compete in 3 months and i wanted to step up my training and i heard if it was seperated it will take forever to heal!!
Anyone have experience with this and how long it takes to heal if it really was seperated??
