Hi,
Children with dyspepsia (indigestion) can have bad breathing and stomach ache. Infection with H. pylori can have similar symptoms but it is not common in children.
I would suggest a course a Lansoprazole will relieve the symptoms if it is due to dyspepsia.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Nirubhan Bharathy, Pediatrician
