What causes pain in the left lower abdomen in children?

Abdominal pain is a relatively common symptom. It covers a wide range and causes many complications. And the nature of the abdominal pain is relatively complex. Sometimes abdominal pain may not be a serious problem, but sometimes it is often a more serious symptom. Abdominal pain is often divided into two types: damp-heat stagnation type and spleen and stomach weakness type. It may also be a problem with the intestines. We can massage and drink hot water to help children relieve pain.

Intestinal spasm is paroxysmal abdominal pain caused by strong contractions of the smooth muscles of the intestinal wall. It is the most common condition of acute abdominal pain in children. In young infants, the degree and intensity of their crying can be used to understand whether there is intestinal spasm. Intestinal spasm, if the child's abdominal pain only occurs occasionally or does not occur frequently, generally no medication is needed for treatment. After about a few minutes or more than ten minutes, or even a few seconds, the abdominal pain will often be relieved naturally. If the child suffers from the so-called "intestinal spasm", that is, the symptoms of abdominal pain may continue for several days, or several times a day, and the child's study and life may even be affected by the abdominal pain. At this time, the child needs to take antispasmodics and anti-allergic drugs, such as belladonna and phenagar. At the same time, some temporary pain relief measures can also be taken, including local warming of the abdomen, the use of hot water bags, massage or acupuncture. After the above treatment, intestinal spasm can generally be gradually relieved in about 3 days.

Based on the child's condition, it is recommended that the child's left lower abdominal pain be considered to be caused by enteritis.
