How painful is it? It’s probably just bruising. Give it a couple of days and if the pain hasn’t decreased go get an X-Ray in case you have a few fractured ribs or something.

Painful enough to stop my sleeping!
Had a coughing fit earlier and ribs were aching so much during it.
No signs of bruising, though I can feel a difference inside.

Thanks for tagging me Nunchuck Master.
It should be Ok and will probably go away quite soon, but would probably still be helpful to see a doctor and show it to them and follow their advice, if any.
Get well soon !
