What Causes Severe Pain Near Naval And Vomiting?

hi, my 3 yr old son (wt. 19.9 kg) complained of abdominal pain today. When I ask him to show me where was hurting him he showed be his belly button. I proceeded to examined the area and shortly after I did her began to vomit. After he did this her said he was feeling better and he went out side to play. I gave him panadol for the pain and her also drank a lot of water. After about half an hour of play he began to complain again and he brought up the water her drank.I gave him a bath and I gave him a tea spoon of gravol. He immediately immediately went to sleep, however he vomited twice after (small amount of water). He do not have a fever nor diarrhea. What can I give him. I purchased pedialite and enterogermia but I did not give it to him because he is sleeping. Am sorry but I cant pay for your services, I exhausted my credit. Sorry

Hi ! Good morning. I am Dr Shareef answering your query.

Please do not bother about the payment.

Abdominal pain followed by vomiting in this age group could be due to any kind of food poisoning specially if he ate from outside. Other condition to be excluded most is an attack of appendicitis which could mimic the pain and symptoms of a gastro enteritis presuming that he does not have any kind of upper respiratory tract infection. If the problem persists, I would advise you to take him to your family physician or the nearest ER for a proper clinical examination and related investigations for further management.

I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts.

Thanks for choosing health care magic to clear doubts on your health problems. I wish you an early recovery. Dr Shareef
