7 yr old had difficulty breathing while exercising twice this week. never occurred before. he's athletic. said it hurt in his neck. was ok after rest?

SOB/Exercise: This sounds like exertion caused a bit of respiratory symptoms to occur, may be normal range. Observe, though, for shortness of treat/wheezing with exercise repeatedly, as exercise-induced asthma can be subtle. Any chronic cough, shortness of breath after each time of exercise and or wheezing/tight chest, should be seen by regular MD. Welcome to health tap, Dr. Ivy Fisher
