A member asked:

My 11year old girl , she complain about pain chest on her left side , should i take her for check up?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

To sort it out.. yes: Left sided chest pain in kids is often due to irritation of their swallowing tube. This structure enters the stomach just behind the heart on the left side & can be irritated by backwash of stomach acid. There are other possibilities. A review of her history & an exam would help sort it out.
