A four-year-old girl has reported abdominal pain multiple times at home and in kindergarten. After the parents gave her oral Huoxiang Zhengqi Liquid, the symptoms were relieved, but they recurred. She had undergone deworming treatment a while ago. Two days ago, she developed a fever along with abdominal pain. After taking medication at night, her body temperature dropped, but she fevered up again to 39.8 degrees at night. What could be the cause of the abdominal pain and what is the method of treatment?
Answer
Hello, abdominal pain is very common in daily life and its causes are diverse. Abdominal pain can be categorized as acute or chronic; acute abdominal pain occurs suddenly and has a short course; chronic abdominal pain has a slow onset and a long course. Abdominal organ diseases or diseases outside the abdomen, such as chest diseases and spinal injuries, can all lead to abdominal pain. For recurring abdominal pain, detailed diagnosis and treatment are necessary to determine the specific cause and provide appropriate treatment. It is recommended to seek medical attention promptly for a comprehensive examination and professional medical evaluation to detect and treat potential causes in a timely manner.
