Brief Answer:
Give tylenol. Give omeprazole or lansoprazole. Visit a doctor.

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.

In case of abdominal pain, it is very important to examine the child clinically. However, tylenol (acetaminophen) syrup can be given in order to reduce pain as well as fever. I would also insist on use of Prilosec (omeprazole) XXXXXXX in order to reduce hyperacidity or acid reflux which could be a common source of abdominal pain. Keep the gaps between meals small. For further assistance you would need to visit a doctor and get him evaluated.

Most often the cause of fevers in children is viral. Most commonly acid reflux is the cause of abdominal pain.

Let me know if I could help further.
