Chest Pains For A Healthy Teenager, Please Help Her
What could be the cause of this? My mum said I have a small heart murmur but was cleared of anything by doctors when I was born. What could it be? Some times Its when im going for a run, sometimes its just random. Its not an agonizing pain but a sharp kind of pain around my chest
I had massive chest pains as a kid growing up. Doctor did all kinds of tests and at the end of it all said... "just growing pains".
He also explained that heart trouble in young adults rarely causes any pain.
If it worries you so much, go see a doctor.
