Chest pain in children and adolescents is a very common complaint mentioned to parents. Fortunately it is very rare that chest pain is caused by a significant problem. The most common source of chest pain in children is what is called musculo-skeletal.in origin. Check with the doctor anyway to rule out the fear of unnoticed illnesses.
