Seat belt (to avoid accident) hit my left breast. no bruising but area through breast and upper area is sore. is this of concern? what can i do to help heal this? annual mamm and recent breast exam, all normal. happen 24 hrs ago. thank you.

ICE: ICE THE AREA FEW TIMES A DAY, GIVE IT SOME TIME. AS LONG AS YOU HAVE NO BREATHING PROBLEMS YOU SHOULD BE OK. YOU WILL GET SOME BRUISING SOON.

Expected/moist heat: A heating pad would increase blood flow to the area & speed healing. Be aware that heat also speeds up nerve impulses so it may ache more when you do it. Otherwise good nutrition & rest will allow your system to heal. Thanks for using the seat belt.
