Question

How to handle frequent abdominal pain in my 5-year-old daughter, which is sometimes accompanied by nausea?

Answer

The abdominal pain and nausea in a baby may be due to gastrointestinal infections, such as acute gastroenteritis, mesenteric lymphadenitis, or appendicitis. First, an abdominal ultrasound examination should be conducted to determine if there are any infectious factors such as appendicitis or mesenteric lymphadenitis. Based on the examination results, appropriate anti-infection treatment can be administered. At the same time, gastrointestinal tranquillizer pills can be given to relieve intestinal discomfort, and domperidone liquid can reduce nausea. If symptoms do not improve, immediate medical attention should be sought for further examination and treatment.
