Hi I had a bad snowboard fall 3 years ago and presume I cracked a rib as the pain was incredible. I didn't ever go to the Dr to get it checked as I was traveling. I still feel the pain in the lower rib area 3 yrs later when I am in certain twisted positions. I am thinking of having a baby this year, will this effect my old injury and I wonder if I can go through pregnancy with this old injury that is taking forever to heal?

But when you got home have you confirmed that indeed it was a cracked rib? Did you get any treatment for that, like anti-inflammatory medications and checkup to see if the rib has healed properly? The danger with cracked rib is not only the pain, but the more serious problems that it can cause by splinters injuring surrounding soft tissue. So, if you plan to have a baby and the pain is still there, it definitely is the best that you have that examined and get a general idea about your health now, so you could have a successful pregnancy.
