What are the symptoms of rib fracture in 60 days?

After 60 days of rib fracture, there will be obvious pain relief, local slight pain and tenderness, discomfort during breathing and other activities, and slight swelling or deformity.

1. Pain relief

After 60 days of recovery, the fracture begins to heal, callus forms, and the stimulation to surrounding tissues decreases, so the pain level will be greatly reduced. However, due to incomplete recovery, pain may still be caused in some specific movements.

2. Local mild pain and tenderness

Although the overall pain is relieved, slight pain may still be felt when pressing on the fracture site or performing some movements that may cause thoracic movement, which is a normal manifestation of recovery.

3. There is discomfort when breathing and other activities.

Deep breathing and coughing may involve the fracture site, resulting in certain discomfort.

4. There may be slight swelling or deformity. If the

fracture healing is not particularly ideal, or the patient recovers slowly, there may still be local slight swelling, and even the deformity of the fracture can be seen or touched.
