2-year-old girl experiencing intermittent pain in the lower left abdomen, especially severe pain, what should be done?

Patient's question:

2-year-old girl has intermittent pain in the lower left abdomen, especially severe. Why? Previous treatment history and effectiveness: The first time hasn't seen it, what kind of help is needed: What is this disease

Doctor's answer:

A 12-year-old child experiences pain in the lower left abdomen again. The first thing to consider are two aspects: gynecological issues and intestinal problems. If the child has experienced menstruation again, it's important to be cautious about whether there is a recurrence of inflammation in the left adnexa during their growth and development. An ultrasound examination can be performed. Of course, if menstruation hasn't occurred, the likelihood of this is very small.
On the other hand, it could be the descending colon, which is part of the intestines. The child may have constipation, which is related to their diet. Massaging the left abdomen may reveal vertical hard lumps, which are caused by hard stool in the descending colon.
It's recommended to give the child more dietary fiber, maintain stability, and massage the abdomen in a clockwise direction frequently. When the child feels the urge to defecate, it should be addressed promptly without holding it in.
