Suggest Treatment For Pain In Chest While Breathing Of A 5 Year Old
My daughter (5yrs old) fell and hit her chest a wood object. There is no bruising and slight swelling. She can move around and raise her arms. She will be lying down and will suddenly complain of pain. She also says it hurts when she breathes. She has very low tolerance for pain, so I don t know how intense her pain is. Should I take her to the hospital?

Hi,
You should get your daughter examined by a doctor, as it suggests an internal injury to a bone (rib or sternum) or to the soft tissue below the area of pain.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
