Patient's question:
It has been more than a month now. Climbing upstairs hurts, and as soon as I enter the house, I have to lie down for a while to feel better. Running is also an issue—I dare not run. There has been no external injury. Once, after recovering from a stomach and intestines cold, I went downstairs for a walk and ran a few steps. Then, I felt intense pain in my sternum, which started from that moment and has continued until now. I have never experienced this kind of pain before.Doctor's answer:
Hello, this condition is considered to be congenital heart disease. An echocardiogram can be performed to detect abnormalities, and timely treatment is required if abnormalities are found. If necessary, surgery can be performed for treatment.Children have weaker immune systems, so they are prone to pediatric general surgery conditions. For parents, it is important not to panic and should take the child to a top-tier hospital for examination and treatment in a timely manner. Additionally, regular check-ups should be conducted for the child, and medication should be administered under the guidance of a doctor.
