Pediatrician 's  Response
Hi Denise, thanks for your query. I do understand your anxiety..
Stomach pain n vomiting going on for 4 weeks, may be on and off. First thing u need to get his an ultrasound (USG) abdomen to detect any serious problem.. meanwhile can try with paracetamol for her pain. Since her appetite is poor, that may be the reason for not passing stools. continue stool softner only if there is hard stools.
Your baby needs to be seen by paediatrician or a pediatric surgeon to access your daughter for acurate diagnosis and appropriate treatement..
Hope this relieves your anxiety.. Thanks mail back for any further quieries.
