What Causes Stomach Pain In A Child?
My daughter has been sick since last Wednesday she has been to the hospital twice but all they ve done was was give pain medicine and fluids. She is having really bad stomach pains on her right side. She s had blood in the stool, vomiting, can t eat, and very week. They did a CT scan and says one kidney is quite larger than the other. Do you have any idea what it is?

Hi sir,You did not specify the age of your daughter because in smallchildren below 5 yrs, urinary tract infections/kidney stones may present with the above complaints. If one kidney is larger and one is very small may be due to block of blood vessel supplying a kidney resulting in high BP may be a possibility. Please get her evaluated properly in conjunction with a pediatric nephrologist
