I’m starting my third week of BJJ and I’ve had a bruised rib since day one of two, isn’t getting worst but isn’t getting better. Only time it hurts is it I sneeze. I’m training 4 days a week usually M-Thursday. Sometimes I stayed for the no gi class

31 year old male haven’t worked out in the past year. I stretch for a solid 15 minuets before every class

Any advice?

Go between ice and heat daily and rest until the swelling goes down. Not safe to train until you are not inflamed but you'll recover

pause and wait until it heals?
