Patient's question:
My child is 3 and a half years old. Recently, he occasionally complains of stomach pain while walking, specifically below the left ribs. I took him to the hospital, and the tests for the liver, gallbladder, and spleen all came back normal! He is usually able to sleep and eat well, and he doesn't vomit. The only thing is that he says his stomach hurts when he walks or moves around. What could be the reason for this?Doctor's answer:
First, in this case, it is still necessary to take a comprehensive look at the patient's condition. On the other hand, at this time, it is necessary to check whether it is caused by mesenteric lymphadenitis. You can perform an ultrasound to carefully examine the mesentery to see the condition, and at the same time, provide appropriate targeted treatment. During daily life, it is important to pay attention to diet and avoid letting the child eat junk food. Moreover, the abdomen and feet should not be exposed to cold and it is necessary to pay attention to keeping warm.
