We are camping now. My son said he had a kinda cramp pain on his lower ribcage and having hard time to breath. He is 10 years old. I ask him to breath in and out slowly for so many times and he said the pain from 10 went to 5? Are we doing it right? What do you think it is?
Hi...it could be a Costco Chat Doctor.  As you are camping I will tell you the danger signs as to when you need to get him to medical attention - 1. Pain getting aggravated too fast.2. Breathing difficulty.3. High grade fever.4. Inability to breath normally.5. If there had been a history of injury at the painful region.Otherwise, as of now for the pain you can use Paracetamol at appropriate dose. Regards -
