What Causes Recurring Stomach Pain And Urge To Vomit?

Hello, my 6 yo daughtrer has been complaining of stomach pain on and off for the last 3 days. The location of the pain is in the center toward the left. When asked if she has to use the restroom or vomit, her response is she feels like she has to throw up ( at that point she does not vomit, just large amount of saliva). She goes from periods of feeling sick and nausea to playing. she states the pain feels like she is really hungry. During the stomach pain episodes she drags her self around on the floor complaing of pain. I have press frimly on her stomach (mcburney s point) and no painful response. should i take her to the doctor?

Pediatrician 's  Response
your daughter probably have gastritis , which is caused by offending material , like food poisoning, while the food posing usually resolve between 12-24 hours , it effect because of gastritis lasts a little bit longer.
I recommend giving her omeprazole 20 MG once a day before breakfast , which will help her stomach to calm down , avoiding any pipers or hot food will be appropriate.
at any point, when you notice fever , rigid abdomen , intractable vomiting , vomiting blood or green material you should visit her doctor .
I hope this helps
