Breathing Problem With Soreness In Belly
My son, 12, has had a cbc, ultrasound , CT scan , X-Ray, and an allergy test and everything checks out okay. He is having a hard time breathing and soreness from his belly button to his solar plexus . This has been going on for over a month. He s been prescribed prednisone and prilosec, but nothing seems to be working. He doesn t have a problem eating and says that a cool drink eases the pain. He s a very active kid, please help.

hi well come to hcm.
since he is on steroids which at times leads ulcer or acute gastritis.usg and ct may
not reflect it so if needed better submit himfor endoscopy or barium meal exam. which
may help you if treating Doctor agrees. Thanks
