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.
My 13 year old dauaghter has been experiencing stomach pain for approximately 2 months. The pain is localized- from her navel area to the right side. At first the pain seemed to be whenever she ate,but since 3-4 weeks, it has been constant. She is often in severe pain,especially at night. She says it is stabbing pain and sometimes it feels burning. She has seen a pediatric GI. She has had numerous tests- CT scan,ultrasounds (ovaries and gallbladder), colonoscopy, endpscopy, and HIDA scan. All the tests have been negative. She has been taking Miralax daily. I am very concerned as the pain is constant and often will wake her at night. Any input.suggestions are appreciated.
Hi, From history as all tests of abdomen are normal she might be having chronic gastro-intestinal infection which can not be located by these tests. Go for stool test for any type of infection like protozoal or bacterial After report she might require one course of ofloxacilin, metronidazole medicine for 7 days. Avoid giving fried, chilies and junk food. Ok and take care.
