Suggest Treatment For Chest Pain And Breathlessness In A Child
Kid of 11 years old, she feels breathlessness for about a while, she feels something blocks her nose for a while, she feels gasping for air for about a while 1/2 an hour to one hour, and then she feels kind of pain in the chest area. ECG was taken and that was normal.

Hi...Thank you for consulting in Health Care magic. The symptoms you quote might fit into wheezing, but the thing is it wont subside by itself like that in 1 hours time. Keeping in mind the age and gender of the kid, I feel you should consider hyperventilation and other conversion reaction like symptoms. I am considering this diagnosis as the symptoms you quote do not fit perfectly into any known clinical syndrome. I suggest you see your paediatrician. Hope my answer was helpful for you. I am happy to help any time. Further clarifications and consultations on Health care magic are welcome. If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer. Wish your kid good health.
