HI
Well come to HCM
Such symptoms in pediatric age group is matter of concern and this can not be left like that only and this would be immediately brought to investigation, one more thing, if such symptoms let untreated even for couple of weeks then this could turned into medical emergency may some time serious one, but nothing like that happened withthin this years so this may not be that much serious as it is described here, still better to get done certain tests, like x-ray chest, CT of thorax, ECHO, these would clear the diagnosis, take care.
