Hi,
Thanks and welcome to healthcare magic.
Pain abdomen in a 11 year old child may be due to Amobic colitis, urinary tract infection ,worm infestation and digestive disturbance .
Albendazole at bed time to eradicate worm infestation and metronidazole for Amoebiasis can be tried.
Get the urine examined microscopically to rule out urinary tract infection .
Consult pediatrician if there is no outcome .
Hope this reply is OK for you.
Please feel free to ask further queries if any.
