Chest Pain in Children Explained | Dr. Sanjeeva Reddy | Manipal Hospital Whitefield
In most cases, chest pain in children isn’t related to the heart. Dr. Sanjeeva Reddy, Consultant – Paediatrics, PICU, and Neonatology at Manipal Hospital Whitefield, explains common causes such as lung infections, acid reflux, and even stress, especially in older children. However, chest pain that is severe, occurs during activity, or spreads to the arm/back should be taken seriously. Other red flags include dizziness, fainting, racing heartbeat, or a family history of heart conditions. Dr. Reddy assures that over 99% of cases are not serious and can be managed with reassurance and simple care, but being aware of warning signs is key to timely action.
