What Could Prolonged Stomach Pain And Nausea In A Teenager Indicate?
I have a 17 yr old son who is having stomach pain, nausea. It has always bugged him a little on and off but lately it has gotten bad. We tried altering his diet but that doesn t seem to help. He said it feels like his stomach is being squeezed and he has pain. No fever or diarrhea or vomiting. Any ideas what it could be?
Prolonged squeezing type of stomach pain in a teenager is most probably due to duedonal ulcer.. Pl check the relationship between food and pain. If pain status with food... it can be gastric ulcer too. Other causes can be biliary colic and volvulus, intusucception etc. Ultrasound abdomen with endoscopy will help to arrive at diagnosis
