Answers:
That happened to me once - I tripped and hit the arm of a chair - It's not uncommon for it to hurt the day after - I even had trouble breathing. Your diaphragm is thrown off, it'll be better, trust me! I had to leave school because I couldn't sit throuch class without having problems breathing and having these massive stomachaches. It turned up I had bruised my diaphragm - a bruise like that will heal in a day or two. Just don't go running marathons or anything, cool it a bit, and you'll be fine quite soon! (isn't that the worst feeling though?)
You probably bruised a rib or something. If it continues to hurt to breathe for several more hours, definitely go to the urgent care doc and get it checked out. Could be a broken rib.
Try to obstain from sudden movements. Can you bend it?
See a doctor in 2 days if it doesnt get better.
I say you go talk to your horse and ask it why it bucked you off. I mean thats not very nice.
Maybe the horse can give you a nice back rub and try to make you feel better.
You might have broke a rib or something, so you should really let the horse know that if he bucks you off agian, you are going to ground him and not let it ever go to the rodeo again.
I think you should just rest for a day or tow and if the pain is still their go to a doctor.
You might have bruised of cracked ribs. You can go see a doctor but they can't do much with that anyway, they just splint them and it hurts for weeks anyway. A doctor can at least give you some drugs to help dull the pain, and make sure that you did not damage your lungs. That is a classic sign of bruised ribs though.
