This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hello Doctor,

I have been having chest pain (tightness and burning fullness) and heart palpitations. I am 16 years old and have had Kawasaki disease. Should I go to the ER? Please suggest.

Thank you.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Kawasaki disease is associated with coronary artery aneurysm. If you are having palpitations please visit the ER. And later discuss the disease with me, and I will help you.

Thank you.
