Doctor's answer:
Periumbilical pain is the most common location of abdominal pain in children. Due to the wide range of pediatric abdominal pain, it is difficult to treat it in a specific area. The most common periumbilical pain in 6-year-old children is functional abdominal pain, accounting for 90% of abdominal pain, meaning that 90% of children's abdominal pain is functional abdominal pain. Functional abdominal pain refers to pain without organic changes or inflammatory changes. When diagnosing functional abdominal pain through medical history, appropriate dietary guidance for functional abdominal pain and medication adjustments are provided. One type of abdominal pain is mesenteric lymphadenitis. Fever can cause lymph node enlargement, leading to abdominal pain.
