If the rib has not yet healed you will need to go back to the doctor and most likely have surgery done to put the rib in place and to also get your stomach a special wrap to keep you from using your stomach muscles as much.

Why would your foot start to hurt again after you fractured it 4 months ago and could it have not been fully healed?

When you have had a broken bone the alignment of the joints nearby can be affected. Even though the bone may have healed the nearby joints could have been thrown slightly out of place which can lead to damage in the cartilage, which in turn will lead to pain. there is no cure for this problem at present. however it would be wise to seek treatment with your doctor in order to find out what would be the best way to deal with the problem to reduce pain and further damage.
