Suggest Treatment For Chest Pain In Kid

My 10 year old son started last night complaining of chest pains and feeling really dizzy. He was in tears. He went to bed and was fine this morning. The school called and said he is complaining of the same thing. Should I be worried? Do I need to take him to the Dr?

Hi,

At this age chest pain will not be serious don't worry, but I would like him to be evaluated first for mitral valve prolapse. If it is still persisting then costochondritis has to be considered.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
