What Is The Treatment For Severe Stomach Pain?

Hi, my daughter who is 12 now has had stomach ache/pain for at least 6 years and has had a blood test, and they did not find anything. I believe her. I also had this pain when I was little and still get it too. A lot of times its the food and drinks I might have and was wondering if that could be her problem too. Thank you.

Hello
Thank you for asking question.
I am Dr Adil

Abdominal pain has number of causes. By stomach pain, i presume that you mean pain in epigastric region, that is center of the upper abdomen.

Epigastric pain also has number of causes.
If i see a patient who has epigastric pain for such a long time. I would order baseline tests that is, blood cp, liver and renal function test and more importantly an uper GI endoscopy and abdominal ultrasound and will also look for H-pylori antibodies to completely rule out some common causes.

The above mentioned test should be done and the reports of these tests will aid in making a comment and final decision.

I hope you have understood my point.
You may ask me more questions anytime. If you have already done these tests, feel free to share their reports.
Regards.
Dr Adil
