Chest Pain

by paula4492, May 18, 2009 02:23PM

Tags: muscle pain

My son is 10 years old and he recently received a trampoline for a late birthday gift. Recently he started complaining of chest pain. We figured he was not used to jumping and that maybe he was messing with something inside like a muscle or something. He has been complaining for a about a week now and tried to jump again and it is still hurting him something awful. Could this be a pulled muscle?

To: Dear paula4492,

Yes a strained muscle and it is sore and inflammed. Rest for some days at his age will make wonders. Give him some pain killers and if it does not help you have to take him to a Paediatrician.
Take care!

thanks a lot, I did take him to a doctor and was told the exact same diagnosis. He is on some ibuprophen for the pain when he needs it and it seems to be better I guess thanks again.
