Hi,
From history it seems that your son might be having some bacterial infection in the lungs or having pneumonia givng rise to fever and chest pain.
As fever is alright, continue with antibiotics, gradually after infection cures, he wil be alright.
Give him light diet.
Ok and take care.

Hi,
I had gone through your query, as you described that EKG and Chest X ray within normal limit , then it is no need to worry , your son should wait for symptoms to go away. Minor infection in the chest may be responsible for this complain . Your son is on antibiotic and improving , thats good . Faith on your doctor and continue the treatment according to your doctor.
Wish you good health
