it's bruised bad enough that he can't fight, it's not broken though..
Lol there's no way you can say that for a fact... He had 4(?) different doctors look at him, most concluded that it was a bruised rib, but he got a ct scan confirming that it's broken.
None of the other doctors performed a ct scan, because ct scans subject you to a lot of radiation and confirming a broken rib for fans who for some reason can't accept it is obviously not worth the health risks involved.
Regular xrays are 2-dimensional imaging, making it impossible to detect certain types of breaks, while ct scans are used to create 3d images but use much more powerful xrays and are therefore very dangerous. There's not a doctor on the fuckin planet who would suggest you do two ct scans for a broken rib... Most would suggest you not even do one since the treatment of a broken/bruised rib is the same anyway.
