Hi my child 10 years of age has been diagnosed with Tietze. Since last 3 weeks he is on ibuprofen. He has unbearable pain in left side of his chest. Painkillers to this extend is also not good. He has started feeling weak. Please suggest something which can relieve him from pain. It pains in school too. He has stopped playing.
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. Your baby problem is only pain and treitz syndrome basically doesn't have any other treatment to be given than pain killers. I know it's not good to take more tablets but even suffering more pain is also not good to the heart. So don't worry about taking more tablets. You can change to other tablets of side effects occurs. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
