Hi,I am Dr. Santosh Kondekar (Pediatrician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hello, My my son is 13. He has had an upset stomach off and on for 3 days now. Getting sick quite a bit a night Then this evening I noticed that there is bruising on his right side over his rib cage. He says repeatedly he never injured himself. So I am worried. Should I consider taking him to the hospital to get him checked out?
HI...spontaneous bruising always warrants clinical evaluation for a bleeding disorder or liver disease. Please take him to his pediatrician. Regards - Dr. Sumanth
