question: Hello. My 7 year son is extremely active and athletic. He is constantly running and full of energy. However, after playing youth basketball this season, he stated that he wasn't sure if he wanted to play sports anymore because sometimes his chest hurts after he runs hard. He does not complain about chest pain while at rest and has said it has only happened twice. The pediatrician referred me to an allergist to see if he has exercise induced wheezing. Is this appropriate for now, or should I push to see a cardiologist. My son has no known health problems.
