Patient's question:
My baby is seven years old. Recently, he has been sighing deeply, feeling uncomfortable. I checked the ECG, and the heart muscle is normal! What could be the reason? What kind of medicine would be better to take?Doctor's answer:
Seven-year-old child, recurrence of this condition may be related to sigh-like breathing. Sigh-like breathing primarily manifests as a deep breath inserted into a segment of normal breathing rhythm, often accompanied by a sighing sound. It is seen in cases of neurasthenia, mental tension, or depression. It is important to carefully observe the child's overall condition and understand whether they have experienced severe mental or emotional stress. It is recommended to have a chest X-ray examination at the hospital to help identify the underlying cause.
