Can Stress Cause Abdominal Pain In A Child?
My 7 yr old says her stomach hurts on one side, this started the first day of school, but its been a couple of days and it still hurts, I picked her up the first day but I sent her all this week since Tuesday not picking her up early. I think its digestive. No fever but at home she ask me for a icepack. The teacher says its homesickness. Do I need a MD
