Question
My child has pain above the navel in the morning, which subsides after eating. After taking medication for a month, the pain is still there. What’s going on?
Answer
Based on your description, it could be a case of severe abdominal pain due to exposure to cold or a Helicobacter pylori infection. I suggest taking your child to a pediatrician for a re-examination to determine the cause and receive treatment under the doctor’s guidance. Also, be mindful of abdominal cold compresses to prevent cold and avoid eating extremely cold or irritating food.
