Hot wheels box fell on me at work, hit my ribs, got bad pain immediately, still hurting hrs later, hurts when i breathe too, did i bruise it? no marks

Mgt: I would suggest a heating pad,rest and Motrin as needed. If you have any shortness of breath or trouble breathing, please visit the ED. If you are still in pain after one day, please see your PCP. Most likely you did bruise the ribs/chest wall.
