Okay, just over a year ago I had a really bad chest infection, and my ribs were apparently brusied internally (or something ) adn breathing really hurt. For months after it really hurt to laugh, my ribs felt like they were being crushed. It's not as extreme now, but whenever I laugh a lower rib on my left hand side kind of cracks. Does anyone know if this is becuase of the infection and if it's okay?

I recommend seeing a quack.

Maybe I will, it's just pretty hard to get to a doctor where I live, and it doesn't seem serious-but then, how do I know if it's serious- so I thought maybe someone on here would have the appropraite knowledge to say whether it is..but thanks, maybe I will.

Once I heard a POP in my right chest after a sneeze. It took me a whole hour to stand up. I got an xray which found nothing but bruising.
