What Causes Stomach Bloating To A 11 Year Old?
my 11 yr old dauaghter's stomach is always distended and appears to be bloated. I took her to doctor and she thought it was just the way she was positioning herself when she stands since she has a slight arch in her spine. I feel it is something other than that but not able to get any answers. She is at the age when she is beginning to feel self-conscious about it. What can I do to help?

Hi..Does the child have any other complaints like vomiting or constipation? Is it associated with the pain? If there are no such complaints then you need not worry. Also what is the weight and dietary habits of the child? Is she taking lots of junk food? Please let me know the details.
