Child With Painful Lump With Bruise On The Stomach. Blood Vessel Burst?

Hi there. My 3 year old daughter has a small pointed lump with bruising around it on the lower left side of her stomach. We don't know of any knocks or bumps that could have caused it and she has been saying her tummy hurts. Saw our GP and he said it could be a burst blood vessel and game me some anti inflammotory cream but I'm still worried! A second opinion would be much appreciated. Many thanks.

Hi, your 3 year old daughter has a small pointed lump, bursting around it on lower left side of stomach.
It appears it is a boil, or a lymph node which burst , i to my patients with such symptom clear the pus, and give an antibiotic and antiinflamatory drug , and antibiotic ointment for cure of the boil.
So i advise you to consult a pediatric surgeon or a general surgeon for treatment. Thank you.
