What causes chest pain in 8 year kid?
Patient: Yes my 8 year daughter was complaining of her chest hurting today so went to er they did chest x-ray and than ekg and found an abnormal reading.. They said it was  the two top parts of the heart wiring were misfiring, what the hell is that.... They said its normal in kids and unless she is dizzy not to worry.... Doctor: Hello dear, Thank you for your question. I don't have sufficient information on the ECG report to diagnose your daughter. It is common for children to have strong heartbeat (palpitations) or in the case of your daughter "irregular" rrythm (benign arrythmias). The majority of these symptoms tend to fade as the child grows and the conduction system of the heart matures. As long as you consult periodically with a specialist there is nothing to worry about.I hope this helped.Best wishes,Dr. Alma
