What to do if a little girl has a stomachache

Stomachache is a common symptom of disease in children. For most children, stomachache has a great impact. Generally, stomachache will cause children to have some very sad symptoms. Crying is the most typical symptom of children. Parents are also very helpless about their children’s stomachache symptoms, especially the stomachache of little girls. Let’s take a look at the explanation below.

Pediatric intestinal spasms are common in preschool children. The abdominal pain is mainly located around the umbilicus or upper abdomen. It often occurs suddenly and the pain is short-lived, generally not exceeding 30 minutes. It may recur, and after the abdominal pain is relieved, the child's condition is normal. Since this is a physiological phenomenon in the growth process of children, not a disease, no special treatment is required.

When the child has abdominal pain, parents can let the child lie flat, flex the lower limbs, and then gently massage around the child's navel with their hands (the parent's hands should be warm); or use a hot towel, hot water bottle, etc. to apply heat to the child's navel (can be applied through clothes to avoid scalding the child). It is worth reminding that if the child refuses to let you massage her belly, or the abdominal pain cannot be relieved after massage or hot compress, or she feels more pain during massage, stop immediately and take her to see a doctor.

When a child has such a problem, it must be improved in time, otherwise it will cause great harm to all aspects of the child's body. In serious cases, it will seriously endanger the child's health. Parents should pay attention to this.

From the above explanation, the little girl’s stomachache has a certain impact on the child’s body. This phenomenon will make the child very uncomfortable, and the child’s tolerance is poor. It is easy for them to cry because of a little pain. Therefore, parents should strengthen their care for their children in life.
