Take a Pic: Sorry to hear about your misadventure. Hope the concert was good. The only way to know for sure about broken bones /cartilage is to get you doc to exam you and take a pic of what's going on inside. Hope you feel well soon.

Heavy metal!!: Probably hematoma but need x-ray to rule out fracture, specially to make sure rib not broken, could perforate lung.
