What Causes Abdominal Pain In Children?
Sir,
My son aged 16.5 years who is studying for plus 2 now is suffering from abdominal pain occasionally. Yesterday he again told that he felt the same feeling along with pain in penis while passing urine. He is staying is an institutional hostel for the last two years. He used to take little food usually but according to him he intake enough water always. As it was felt to some sort of urinary infection, he was brought to home and consulted a doctor who advised to test urine and US scan. When tested urine the pus level is 3 to 5 and epithelial cell 1 to 3. Sir, is this normal ? the US scan is yet to be taken. I am at office now and hence with the available details I desired to chat with you to know as to whether there is anything serious. Kindly advice.

Thankyou for your query.
Well 3-5 pus cells indicates UTI.
Kindly start an antibiotic and ask your child to have plenty of water. Ask your son to take an alkalinizing agent along with water once or twice a day.You can get the USG done.
Kindly get the stool routine microscopy done for any parasitic infestation. Just relax and have patience.
Is he having fever also?
Keep in touch if needed
God Bless
