Chest Pain?

[Yasmen W]

I'm 13 years old ( I think that rules out a heart attack) and I get these chest pains every once in a while. Sometimes I feel like I can't move and they feel really sharp like I'm getting stabbed and this may sound weird but it feels like my "chest can't breathe" if you know what I mean... I dunno if this has anything to do with it but I was born with asthma but I really don't have it severely (I don't use an inhaler nor do I take medications). Does anyone know what this could be possibly? PS- You can rule out reactions to medication because I'm not on any currently and I haven't been for a while now.

Do you have GERD? Could be acid reflux. Or even severe gas pains.

[Riven Liether]

That sounds like asthma to me. Maybe you *should* get an inhaler and try using it whenever you get one of these attacks.

Could just be growing pains...I used to get pains all over when I was that age....Maybe go to the doctor, it could be something serious....

Tell your parents and go see your Doctor!

i think u should defiantly see a doctor.ps. u are never to young to have a heart attack

[alli d]

heart burn? buy some tums and see if that helps...take them when you have that pain...it could be something more so maybey to be safe go to your doctor it COULD have something to do with the heart. but the same exact thing happens to me and i have acid reflux... im 15

It would be too hard to guess from the information you have given. It could be anxiety, it could be a breathing problem or nothing at all, but you can't just keep it to yourself. The best thing to do is to tell your mom or dad and have them take you to a doctor. He would be able to check you over and figure out what it could be.

you will be stressed out because i get it when i am stressed out for feeling very low

Young lady you should make an appointment with your doctor, and ask him/her this question. It may be related to the asthma, or could be something altogether different. BUT see your doctor, you will not get a diagnosis on Yahoo answers, just a lot of opinions. Please see your doctor.

my friend very sorry to here at your age but I recommend to see your doctor immediately and insist to send you for a test the way you described in my opinion you have arteries in your hart that's means your blood dose not circulate good I had the same but I'm older than you I had 95% blocked and was operate immediately and now 2years passed and no problem.Do not were for the operation they do not cut they clean up your hart by bluing in a balloon and lasers no pain and you can see your hart during cleanup. good luck I wish your best.
