My child has a stomach ache

Abdominal pain in young children can be caused by many different things. For example, due to certain foods, inflammation, constipation, allergies, tension or anxiety.
Out of 10 children, about 1 regularly suffers from abdominal pain. Girls more often than boys. In more than half of the children with abdominal pain, physical examination shows that there is no clear abnormality that explains the complaints. So a cause can be found with the other children.
