Question
Why does my child get a stomachache after eating watermelons?
Answer
Based on the patient’s medical history and specific condition, the pain may be attributed to acute gastritis. It is suggested to use medication that protects the stomach lining, such as omeprazole, and avoid taking medication arbitrarily. If necessary, a gastroscopy can be performed to confirm the diagnosis. For children, parents should take their child to the hospital for treatment promptly, provide them with adequate care and attention, and help them recover health as soon as possible.
