Maximum pain is about 6 days in... Painful for 6 weeks...
I will second that as I came a cropper on the bike on ice and landed partly on my ribs, that I had hit from a fall some few months earlier. I did`nt go to the doc as I knew there was nothing he could do. It hurt like hell, getting out of bed, getting in bed, getting dressed etc etc. It did`nt stop me riding the bike but it did affect my breathing as I could`nt take deep breathes without a lot of pain. It will get better but give it plenty of time.I think it depends on your age. My last injured ribs took 2-3 months to heal, and i was still getting some twinges 6 months later. Co-codamol for a few days dealt with the initial hit. GP was quite relaxed. Difficulty breathing or coughing up blood come and see me, otherwise just takes time.
I bet that made you laugh?I will second that as I came a cropper on the bike on ice and landed partly on my ribs, that I had hit from a fall some few months earlier.

Now how do we get the OP to laugh?
Laugh did`nt come anywhere close. Winced, oohed and aard and a grimaced look on my face but all is back to normal, The first fall was the worst when I hit a kerb and looked a right plonker. So adding insult to injury I thought that I`d do it on ice ! I can laugh now !!I bet that made you laugh?
laughing hurts
