What Causes Stomach Ache And Headache After Swimming?
My 6 year old swam in a public pool two days ago and has been complaining of a stomach ache and headache since. Last night he wasmcrying it hurt so bad. He has a low temp but nothing serious. We've treated him with tylenol but I'm concerned because of his complaints of pain at the back of his head. Could it be related to swimmer's ear?

Hello!
Our son symptoms are suggestive of a possible infection, I recommend bringing him to the ER for a physical exam and some lab tests (complete blood count, PCR, sedimentation rate, kidney and liver function tests, a stool analysis), a chest X ray study, etc.
Hope you will find this answer helpful!
Kind regards!
