Hi,

Any associated fever or jaundice? Is she able to localise the pain? Can you mention the test reports? Abdominal pain and vomiting can be related to many conditions like acute gastroenteritis, urine infection, appendicitis or acute gastritis. Gall bladder related pain is usually associated with fever, present in right upper abdomen and there can be jaundice also.

Meanwhile, give her analgesic like acetaminophen to control pain, Ondansetron to control vomiting. Give feeds and fluids in small but frequent amounts to improve retention.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Muhammed Aslam T. K., Pediatrician
