Hi,
Thank you for asking question on health care magic.
Physical examination and investigations are all normal, still complaining of tightness of chest and breathlessness,then most probably it is functional.
Better ignore and do not pay any heed to it,but observe the child without her knowledge,
If problem persists consult psychiatrist.
Hope this answer will serve your purpose
Please feel free to ask any more queries if required
Take care
