Question
This morning, the child said that when they pressed on the soft bone above the little chicken below the navel with their hand, it hurt. It doesn’t hurt when not pressed. It’s only on one side. It doesn’t hurt when walking. Previous treatment situation and effect: No treatment. Assistance sought: What could this be?
Answer
Based on your description, considering the possibility of the child having a hernia, it is also necessary to examine for appendicitis. It may also be related to intestinal spasm, which is caused by the strong and intermittent contraction of the intestinal smooth muscle. It is necessary to determine the cause and treat accordingly. It is recommended to take the child to the hospital for an ultrasound examination, appropriately use some spasm-relieving painkillers, and pay attention to diet, avoiding unclean foods and difficult-to-digest or spicy and irritating foods.
