i'm sorry to hear about your auto accident. you obviously were lucky to survive. the chest pain you describe could simply be caused by the rib fracture. ribs can take a very long time to heal. a month isn't very long in terms of a rib fracture. if the chest pain has gotten worse since your accident or if it's accompanied by a fever (over 101f) racing heartbeat or shortness of breath then i'd suggest you see your primary healthcare provider immediately or go to the emergency room. these symptoms can be signs of an infection or a blood clot. i hope this helps and wish you all the best in your recovery!
