What causes stomach pain in children after meals?

Patient's question:

Duration of onset and persistence of the illness: Eating after meals often causes stomach pain, which can be relieved by resting for a while or lying down. What could be the possible cause? Thank you!
Follow-up question: The child is quite thin, with a height of 135 cm and a weight of 30 kg. They haven’t gained any weight this summer either.

Doctor's answer:

The situation described is a manifestation of a stomach function disorder. It is mainly related to factors such as diet and lifestyle. Specifically, avoid acidic, spicy, and irritating foods in the near future, refrain from smoking and alcohol, drink more water, and maintain a relaxed mood. If it does not improve after a long time, you should go to the hospital for an endoscopy. Additionally, pay attention to daily diet and health care. Focus on exercise and rest. Adjust your mental state. Maintain a regular lifestyle. Eat at fixed times and in fixed quantities. Keep a relaxed mood.
