Question

The two-and-a-half-year-old baby always says his stomach hurts after eating, with pain located below the sternum, and now he doesn’t want to eat. Previous treatment and effectiveness: Taking 654-2 tablets had no effect. What kind of help do you need: What should I do?

Answer

Pediatric abdominal pain is a common condition, but since there are many causes for abdominal pain, parents should carefully observe the child’s symptoms when taking them to the hospital for a consultation and should not give the child painkillers arbitrarily. Otherwise, it may mask the symptoms during an attack, interfere with the doctor’s judgment of the condition, and lead to delayed diagnosis and treatment. You can give the child probiotics to nourish the intestines, but if there is no effect, parents should send the child to the hospital for a consultation as soon as possible.
