Pediatrician, Pulmonology 's  Response
Hi... I feel that when there is such an intense pain as is making a toddler to crying continuously, I feel that she should be evaluated for -

1. renal colic or stones in the renal system
2. second possibility is mesenteric adenitis which is also quite common but harmless condition
3. third possibility is that it could be a worm infestation.
