Abdominal pain from injury never checked

Hi, so about 3 months ago I got hit harder than i have ever been hit in my life. It was a little 5 lb mini sledge hammer that had a 200 ton press pushing on it when it shot out with a lot of force and hit me just underneath my floating ribs on my left side. it clipped my rib a bruised it. I did get an X-ray when it happened. but i don't have health insurance, and its a small business where i work that is family owned so i didn't want to cost my family a ton of money by getting a bunch of scans done that i cant afford,. but now that I'm still having abdominal pains. i maybe should have done something like a CT scan. I'm trying to figure out if i could have caused serious damage from a physical injury,. like an abdominal aerobic aneurysm. As i said i had never been hit so hard, ever. the pains i feel now tend to be like a sharp feeling in by abdomen area tucked behind my floating ribs on my left side. and i also get a lot of back pain.  so mainly my question is, what kind of damage can be caused from an experience like that? i mean the hammer hit so hard i didn't even see it happen, i just heard the pop from the press releasing pressure, as that happened i dropped to my knees, looked up saw the hammer was gone and on the floor. And the only thing i had done to check for damage was an x-ray. suggestions? thanks guys, sorry if my post is worded badly this is my first time starting a post on something like this I've always just found post similar to mine. but i couldn't find one this time.
