[|Human|] My son fell while trying to do a somersault. His chin hit the middle of his chest and now he is having sharp pains in the middle of his chest and finding it slightly difficult to breath. Is this from getting the air knocked out of him or something more serious?
[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your sons situation and problem. He is having blunt chest trauma. Musculoskeletal injury is common after such trauma. But since he is having slight difficulty in breathing and sharp chest pain, better to get done chest x-ray to rule out internal lung injury like pneumothorax, Pulmonary contusions, fracture etc. If chest x-ray is normal than no need to worry much for this. He is having simple musculoskeletal pain. Ask him to avoid heavyweight lifting and strenuous exercise. Avoid movements causing pain. Take painkiller and muscle relaxant Chat Doctor.  Application of warm water pad on affected areas is also helpful. Don't worry, he will be alright but first get done chest x-ray. Hope I have solved your query. Wishing good health to your son. Thanks.
