Hi.
Thanks for your query and an elucidate history.
It is imperative to undergo multiple tests in case of pain in abdomen of a child of 7 years as she may give a proper and detailed history.
I would advise her the following::
-MRI of the brain as she had a history of
fainting in January 2011.
-
Ultrasonography and complete hemogram, and
stool test.
-Clinical / Physical examination by a Pediatric Surgeon as an expert opinion and advise you a proper treatment, investigations and get an appropriate diagnosis.
-Get a course of proper antibiotic,
metronidazole, anthelmintic.
The causes of pain in abdomen in a child are as follows:
The most probable cause of pain in a child
-Tummy tonsils- meaning enlargement of the lymph nodes of the abdomen.
-Appendicitis- by default this has to be ruled out in every case of pain in -abdomen of a child.
-Worms.
The best diagnosis is a high resolution ultrasonography. some blood, urine and stool tests.
A therapeutic trial with a course of an antibiotic, metronidazole and probiotics under the guidance of a
pediatrician / Surgeon always helps to solve the problem and to get a diagnosis.
Also given is a dose of medicines active against worms in intestine.
