Your injury occurred "a month ago", and this is no longer acute. This is NOT appropriate for "ER", but should be assessed by your regular doctor, as you may have fractured a rib. If so, an X-ray will reveal the extent and plan any necessary intervention. Since, at your age, healing occurs over 6 weeks, likely you will feel better very soon.
