What Causes Headache, Sore Throat And Stomach Aches?
My 5 year old has been complaining of headache, sore throat and stomach aches simultaneously for about 3 months. There is no consistency, and it s not an escape because it happens when he can be excited about something. I ve been keeping a log of when it happens. What are other suggestions that a Dr. would ask me to do before a diagnosis could be made. It hasn t lasted more than 30 minutes, but sometimes it will happen for consecutive days. Thanks, Jenna Hoffman, concerned mommy

HI
Persistent pain in abdomen in a child requires further evaluation by
1. Ultrasound abdomen
2. Erect X ray abdomen
3. Thorough clinical examination.
I would suggest you to consult Pediatric Surgeon for further assessment.
Take care
