What is the disease of the child's belly button pain

The baby is still very young, and since the child’s immunity is not high, he or she often suffers from many diseases due to low immunity. In particular, the child’s belly button is most susceptible to wind. If infected by the wind, it can easily cause the child to have stomach pain, diarrhea, and even crying. In the following article, let’s learn about the reasons for the child’s belly button pain and how to judge it!

Usually, the general cause of stomach pain can be understood based on the baby's age characteristics, degree and location of stomach pain.

Judging from age

Stomach pain in babies under one year old is mostly caused by intussusception. Stomach pain in babies around three years old is more likely to be caused by intestinal cramps. Stomach pain in preschool children is mostly caused by intestinal roundworms or autonomic nervous system dysfunction.

Determined by pain level

Severe abdominal pain: lying still and not daring to move, mostly due to acute inflammation, such as acute appendicitis, acute cholecystitis, etc.; severe abdominal pain like colic, mostly due to ascariasis, urinary stones, etc.; tearing abdominal pain, common in visceral perforation, such as stomach and gallbladder perforation.

Determined by the location of the pain

Pain in the upper and middle abdomen is often caused by stomach problems; pain in the right upper abdomen is often caused by liver and gallbladder diseases; pain in the lower and middle abdomen is often caused by intestinal diseases; overall abdominal pain is often caused by organ perforation or necrosis or bleeding of diseased tissue; pain around the umbilicus is often caused by small intestine diseases; pain in the right lower abdomen is often caused by appendicitis.

How to deal with it

Send or not send

When it comes to whether to take your baby to the hospital for stomachache, parents should be cautious. Because the hidden problems behind baby's stomach pain can be small or big, and if you don't pay attention, the disease will be delayed. Especially when the baby rolls on the ground in pain, or has any symptoms such as high fever, diarrhea or vomiting, he should be rushed to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment. Of course, some simple stomach pains may just be a false alarm. Even though some pains are quite severe and the baby keeps crying, the pain will disappear after being sent to the hospital. This is because the baby has intestinal spasm. Once the spasm is relieved, the pain is relieved immediately, so the baby starts jumping around again. However, when new parents are unable to distinguish the above situations, it is recommended to send the baby to the hospital for safety.

The first symptom that appears in a child's belly button is similar to this. We must provide relevant treatment. Many children often feel very painful, rolling on the ground, and have a high fever. Remember to check it out and send it to the hospital for treatment if necessary.
