My 11yr old very athletic daughter has been complaining of chest pain for the past few days. She s in many sports so I figured it was due to working out different muscles. Her sternum has always stuck out an that kindve concerned me. Today she had a basketball game an I noticed she was running funny (dragging a foot) she s going to the dr. In the morning but I d like to know what y all think it could be.
As your history suggests it is mostly due to some sort of chest infection. For this you have to give your daughter some antibiotics after an expert opinion of your doctor with some painkiller like kilos or nimeson-p along with some antacids like gelusil-plus or pantop-dsr. Tell her to avoid too much of stress or excess of sports and take some rest. She will be fine don't worry.
