Brief Answer:
Could be due to constipation

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.

Your granddaughter needs to be examined in order to evaluate the actual cause of the abdominal pain. But going by the description, it rather seems to be due to constipation. Give her high fibre diet along with fibre supplements and see if she gets some relief. If the problem still persists, you would need to visit a doctor and rule out other conditions like appendicitis.

Hope that helps.
