[|Human|] My daughter is 7 and was sent home from school today due to feeling faint, shaking and was drinking alot of water. She fainted at end of January 2011 and has been suffering tummy pains since xmas. Is there something underlying that is causing these symptoms? Urine test done and was clear in Jan 2011.
[|AI|]  Hi. Thanks for your query and an elucidated history. It is imperative to undergo multiple tests in case of pain in abdomen of a child of 7 years as she may give a proper and detailed history. I would advise her the following::-MRI of the brain as she had a history of fainting in January 2011.-Ultrasonography and complete hologram, and stool test. -Clinical / Physical examination by a Pediatric Surgeon as an expert opinion and advise you a proper treatment, investigations and get an appropriate diagnosis.-Get a course of proper antibiotic, metronidazole, anthelmintic. The causes of pain in abdomen in a child are as follows:The most probable cause of pain in a child -Tummy tonsils-meaning enlargement of the lymph nodes of the abdomen.-Appendicitis- by default this has to be ruled out in every case of pain in -abdomen of a child.-Worms. The best diagnosis is a high resolution ultrasonography. Some blood, urine and stool tests. A therapeutic trial with a course of an antibiotic, metronidazole and probiotics under the guidance of a pediatrician / Surgeon always helps to solve the problem and to get a diagnosis. Also given is a dose of medicines active against worms in intestine.
