Common Questions and Answers about Chest pain left side in teenagers

chest

Avatar n tn On Nov 29 I wrote to you about my youngest son (16) who was complaining of chest pain and subsequently of weakness in the left side of his body. I called his pediatrician and she had me take him to the emergency room to have him checked out. After running several tests, including blood test and a Head CT w/contrast. Every test result was normal, but his white blood cells where a little low which the hospital thought might be caused by a slight viral infection.
Avatar f tn It most often occurs in children and teenagers and sometimes in adults. The chest pain is localized and deep breathing can result in a "popping" feeling after which the pain quickly dissipates. It's also possible that this could be a form of costochondritis, inflammation at one of the costochondral junctions as suggested by SurgiMenopause. However the pain should be more consistent.
Avatar n tn its in chest and right under left rib cage it started in my upper left side right under my ribs thats why my doc thought it was intestional now it hurts all the way up to my left arm like someone socked me in my left breast and its sore.
Avatar n tn Hi there, I can hear and understand that you are very frustrated and the "not knowing what is wrong" part can make one feel depressed and anxious at times. Typical heart pains, funny enough, will not be at the left side of your chest. It sounds like you have a nerve that is stuck somewhere and have you ever considered seing a Neurologist for an MRI? I am talking out of experience...
Avatar f tn Hi, first of all it's so nice to know I am not crazy. Three years ago, while pregnant with my daughter I started to feel pain under my left rib cage. The docker thought it was her feet brushing against my ribs. Three years later, I am still in pain. Now the pain won't go away. I have had every test under the sun done. Endoscopy, colonoscopy, upper gi, stress test, heart ultra sound, EKG, five other types of ultrasounds ranging from uterus to spleen to gallbladder.
Avatar f tn It feels worse and different than the last chest pain I had. This one is like in my back and all over the left side of my chest. I know that all the tests came back fine but now I'm just not convinced. I can literally feel my arteries being blocked which is what could be causing the pain.
Avatar m tn If feels like the feeling you feel if someone was to jump out from behind something and scare the **** out of you, or the feeling when a cop turns his lights on you to pull you over, or such feeling like that, hard forceful heartbeat, not fast, kinda like shocked into a slow hard heartbeat, fluttering feeling in chest, mild left side chest pain, and short of breath. What could cause this in the middle of the night and wake me from a sleep? Could it be potentially dangerous?

Avatar m tn Your age, the relationship to physical exercise, etc. suggest a thoracic outlet or scalene syndrome. Have MD examine neck muscles and ulnar nerve function in hands. Reduce, if possible, exercises and heat to front of neck over collar bone,, Appropriate pain pillls and muscle relaxers will help also. You are too young to be in USMC- What about school?
Avatar n tn I started to see a new doctor to see if she can figure out my side problem....which i've had for over 13years. Not one doctor can diagnose it. She had all my medical records of all the tests i've had done. I told her I don't want to go down the kidney route b/c it's not my kidney every test i've had done for my kidney comes back normal and fine. Even though it started out as a kidney infection it's not that anymore.
Avatar n tn I also wanted to ask can acidity cause such dull and sharp pains? the pain sometimes raidiates to the back and side of my left chest. And this usually happens at night after dinner.

Avatar n tn I am 64 yrs old and have had pain in my left side for two years and no one can seem to figure it out, I'm hoping maybe someone will recognize the symptoms and be able to guide me in the right direction. The pain is under my left breast and radiates to my back. It also radiates down my left side. It seems to build up and I have ended up in the hospital a year ago and again this December due to the pain being so bad.

Avatar f tn s are for. I have a hiatal hernia and it gives me chest pain in the mid-left side, pretty bad at that. One thing you can do in the meantime is keep an eye on your BP and heart rate, but definitely see your Dr.
