Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history, albeit short.
The commonest causes of persistent stomach pain are related to hollow viscus like intestines, ureters, gallbladder/pancreatic ducts or solid organs like kidney, pancreas and so on.
Hence to know the exact cause one needs the following:
A detailed history related to the site, extent, any referred pains, associated nausea/vomiting, any urinary or gastrointestinal symptoms and so on; please give details.
Additional way is to go for relevant investigations like X-ray of abdomen, Ultrasonography, CT scan of abdomen and tests of blood, urine and stool.

All these things together will give a proper cause and a plan for proper management.
