Fell on ribs 9 days ago figure skating. x-ray showed no fractures. less pain now, but ribs shift & grind when move. normal? when ok to return to ice?

Rib injury: Sometimes X-ray will miss small fractures of the ribs. I would suggest you wait two weeks until you return to ice and/or you have no pain.
