hi,trauma to chest can damage ribs which can retain pain for many months. sometimes, lungs and pleura can also be damaged and very rarely, bleeding can happen into pericardium (layer around heart). Any new symptoms like fever, cough, breathlessness should alarm caution as it indicates internal organ damage. Hope this helped.
