Is It Due To Flu Virus There Is Abdominal Pain And Headache?
my 9 year old son has had abdominal pain and some headaches for the last 3 weeks. he's very tired and lacks energy, can't cope with school. He had a sort of flu virus and then a tummy bug with sickness at the end of December. Could it be something else other than just getting over these viruses?

Hi
Welcome to healthcaremagic
Viral infections generally don't last for 3 weeks.This is parasite ( Guardia,amoeba etc ) or bacterial infection. He will benefit from nitazoxanide and digestive enzymes. Don't give him bread, biscuits,chocolates, chana,mutter,spicy food.These things will aggravate his problem. Don't let him sleep within 30 minutes of meals
Happy to help you
Best regards
