hello,thanks for your query. blunt trauma over sternum can cause fracture of sternum, ribs, tear in lungs with bleeding or contusion which can develop later as lung abscess. any way,evaluate with chest physician and xray chest,if necessary with ct chest. hope i have answered your query. all the best. take care.
