Patient's question:

Daughter is 7 years old, experiencing stomach pain, and has vomited twice. It seems to come in waves. Previous treatment and outcomes: Neutrophils were checked at 89.0, hypersensitive CRP at 1.8, MRI revealed visible mesenteric lymph nodes. What assistance is needed: What is the cause of the stomach pain?

Doctor's answer:

The most common cause of nausea is infection. A urine test is needed to check for bacterial, viral, or mycoplasma infection. Medications should be prescribed based on the results of the urine and stool tests. If nausea is accompanied by fatigue, it's important to be alert to possible conditions such as myocarditis or appendicitis. Probiotics can help regulate the gut flora and alleviate symptoms. For severe nausea, it's recommended to go to the hospital for intravenous antiemetic medication. Additionally, if dehydration symptoms are present, immediate intravenous fluid replacement should be administered. In terms of diet, it's advisable to consume light, soft, and easily digestible foods. For abdominal pain, a detailed abdominal ultrasound examination is necessary.
