Costochondritis is a condition in which the cartilage that connects the ribs to the breastbone (sternum) becomes inflamed. Chest pain is the main symptom, and because the symptoms can resemble those of pneumothorax or heart disease, an accurate diagnosis is important. If chest pain persists, please consult a medical specialist.2026-06-26

The esophagus is a tube about 25 cm long that carries food from the mouth to the stomach. Reflux esophagitis and esophageal cancer are the main esophageal diseases. If you have symptoms such as heartburn, acid regurgitation (a sour taste rising into the throat), or a feeling that food is getting stuck, please consult a medical specialist.2026-06-26

When a child suddenly becomes ill, it can be difficult to decide whether to go to the emergency room right away or to wait and see a local clinic. Unlike adults, children can worsen quickly, so if your child looks or acts differently from usual, do not hesitate to seek medical care.2026-06-26
