Patient's question:
Hello, my child is a 6-year-old boy who often complains of ankle pain. What could be the reason for this? Is it a fracture? Does he need surgery?Doctor's answer:
Hello, I'm glad to help you: The symptoms may be caused by costochondritis. It is recommended to take oral medication for treatment. Also, consider the possibility of intercostal neuralgia. It is advised to visit the neurology department for examination. If you have chest pain symptoms, you should check for possible lung infections, pleurisy, breast hyperplasia, tuberculosis, etc. Additionally, consider whether it could be intercostal neuralgia or costochondritis.
