Why does a 4 and a half-year-old child have a stomachache and refuse to eat?

Patient's question:

Teacher, my baby is four years and three months old. He always has stomach pain in the morning when he gets up and doesn't eat. Today, when he had a bowel movement, there was mucus-like substance. He has been wanting to use the toilet all day but can't go.

Doctor's answer:

Your baby has morning abdominal pain and infrequent bowel movements, which may indicate mesenteric lymphadenitis. Today's symptoms include abdominal pain accompanied by the sensation of mucous stools and a feeling of urgency, so it is recommended to test a stool routine.
