What Causes Chronic Stomach Pain And Weakness In A Child?
My son has stomach pain and a general unwell feeling, he is weak, pale, no fever. This all started with a stomach flu the beginning of Feb. He is still in pain and we have been told it is probably mesenteric adenitis. Is it normal for him to still be in pain. He is 10.

Dear parent,
your concern is right. If that flue occurred a few months ago, pain should have subsided by now, even if adinitis.
You have mentioned weakness, is it loss of weight? If he is pale have you got his blood tested for hemoglobin?
This does't seem normal to me.
I will prefer to take him to a pediatrician, get investigated and treated accordingly.
