Hi
Max may have suffered some mild trauma to his chest or abdomen, but if he is breathing normally, eating, drinking and defaecating fine, then I would advise just resting him for a few days (no walks). If he still seems to be in pain then he will need to be examined by a vet and given anti-inflammatory painkillers.
If there are any other symptoms he is showing that you didn't mention before, feel free to post them in your reply and I will add further comments.
Good luck

No problem, I hope he has made a full recovery already.
