I was hit in the side playing football two weeks ago. The pain was not noticeable until 2 days later when i awoke and noticed it was quite sore from being layed on. I managed to get through the week but suffered another knock at training. The pain was obvious straight away but subsided to being tolerable within 2 minutes. I can run, laugh, and cough with minimal discomfort but the pain is quite evident when touching around the bottom of my left side ribcage or if i attempt to lay fully on my side.Can anyone offer suggestions as i have broken a rib before and the pain is not like that

First get an X-ray so you know for sure that it isn't brooken

If your injury is still worrying you then it is worth going to get it checked out and probably best to rule out a break.
