Patient's question:
My question is the same as that of the impatient parent. A 7-year-old boy has chest tightness and shortness of breath. Western medicine has not found any problems (ultrasound, ECG, myocardial enzyme test), but it recurs after a while. I don’t know what the disease is. I sincerely request that a knowledgeable doctor provide an answer. Thank you!Doctor's answer:
If there are no issues upon inspection, it is recommended to wait and see. It could also be a functional disorder. Chest tightness is a subjective sensation, meaning difficulty breathing or feeling short of breath. Heart disease should be considered, and a chest X-ray may be necessary to help observe and rule out lung diseases. It may also be related to emotional distress. It is advisable to maintain a positive mood and participate in appropriate recreational activities. It is recommended to identify the cause and treat accordingly. Do not take medication blindly.
