Question

How to Handle Children’s Abdominal Pain?

Answer

If a child experiences lower left abdominal pain, it may be due to worms inside the abdomen. However, if the pain persists even after taking deworming medication, it could be a symptom of intestinal obstruction, which requires further examination for a definitive diagnosis. Since there are many factors that can cause pediatric digestive diseases, if the child is diagnosed with a pediatric digestive disease, parents need to cooperate with the doctor for treatment, including gastrointestinal decompression and developing good hygiene habits. Parents should also ensure that their children do not develop the bad habit of picky eating and maintain a balanced diet.
