    You should see your doctor he might want to do x - rays. I would like to also point out there are lots lots of muscles along your ribs. It is possible that you pulled muscles and they do take time to heal. There are so many other possibilities but the only way to figure it out is to go to your doctor and describe your symptoms and go from there. All we can do here is guess what your symptoms mean which could be of many. Physical examination is always best in this situation. Best of luck.
