[|Human|] My daughter is 12 and said she is having hard time taking deep breaths and exhailing, said pain started at her left chest then moved to behind her left shoulder blade, now thats where it stays, I have seen online lots of diagnosis of pleursey or phenomia (spl?).
[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Chest pain with breathing difficulty are commonly seen with pleurisy (inflammation of pleura). Common causes for pleurisy are lung infection, bronchitis etc. So better to consult pulmonologist for her and get done 1. Clinical examination of respiratory system 2. Chest x-ray 3. PUT (pulmonary function test). Chest x-ray is needed to rule out lung infection. PFT is needed for the diagnosis of bronchitis. She may need antibiotic, inhaled bronchodilator and inhaled corticosteroids (ICS). Don't worry, with proper treatment, she will be alright. First diagnose her and then start appropriate treatment. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your daughter. Thanks.
