What should I do if my stomach hurts at night at 8 years old? Because the immunity of children is still relatively poor, they are more likely to have various small problems in the body, so they should be taken seriously. I have collected and sorted out the relevant information on what to do if you have a stomach ache at night at the age of 8, let's find out together.

For 8-year-old children with symptoms of stomach pain, the mother first prepares the child's stomach'Keep warm, let the child drink some warm water in small quantities many times, and then observe the child's condition, if the child's complexion is not abnormal, and the pain symptoms have been relieved, then you can wait until the next day to take the child to the hospital for medical treatment, if the child's pain is not relieved, there is an aggravated situation, then you should take the child to the hospital as soon as possible to see the emergency.

There are many reasons for children's stomach pain, first of all, most of them are caused by the child's abdomen cold, and secondly, it may be that the child suffers from appendicitis, especially if the child often runs and moves after meals, which will increase the possibility of appendicitis, the symptoms of appendicitis are a little painful at the beginning of the stomach, which is easy to confuse and think that it is a stomach pain, and after a period of time, the pain will go to the lower right part of the stomach.

The child's stomach pain may be suffering from acute pancreatitis, mainly because the child eats too much greasy or indigestible food, the pain caused by acute pancreatitis will occur on the upper left side of the belly button, if the above reasons are ruled out, then it is necessary to consider that it may be an attack of enteritis, enteritis is more painful, generally the whole lower side of the stomach will feel pain, accompanied by vomiting, diarrhea and other symptoms, so timely medical examination and diagnosis is the most important.

8-year-old children often feel pain in their stomachs at night, it should be cold, don't give the child too much cold food at night, pay attention to cover the stomach with more quilts. If the child does not get well for a long time, it is best to take him to check the stomach and intestines to see if there is any disease in this area, and if the child is found to have gastrointestinal diseases, it is necessary to be timely**, and do not delay the child's condition. In terms of diet, children should eat less at a time, try to eat more often, eat less each time, eat more vegetables, fruits and vegetables is not a big problem, and more exercise can alleviate it.

In the summer, many people often have stomach aches, including many children. Many parents think that their children's stomach ache can be done as long as they drink more hot water, but in fact, it is not so simple, because there are many reasons for children's stomach pain, so parents must understand why their children have stomach aches in order to prescribe medicine for Tan Yu syndrome. So what's wrong with a 7-year-old child's stomachache?

1. Cold. Many children are not stable when they sleep, and often lift the quilt when sleeping, so that it is easy to expose the hidden belly. As the temperature drops at night, it is easy for the stomach to catch a cold and cause stomach pain if it is left out for a long time.

2. Colic disease. Colic is a common disease in children, if the abdominal pain is caused by colic, then the pain will be more intense, and the child will cry loudly because he can't stand the severe pain. Colic can not only cause stomach pain, but also cause your child to sweat and turn pale.

3. Poor gastrointestinal function. If your child has poor gastrointestinal function, he or she will often have stomach pain. When a child with poor gastrointestinal function eats food that is difficult to digest, the stomach and intestines will produce a stress response under the food, and begin to have symptoms such as stomach bloating, farting, and stomach pain.

However, stomach pain due to poor gastrointestinal function is relatively mild.

Stomach pain in 8-year-old children is often not a disease, but may be a normal physiological phenomenon, which we call "gastrointestinal growing pain".

Gastrointestinal dysphysia is not a medical professional name, but a description of non-pathological manifestations, that is, during the growth and development period (3 12 years old), the child has gastrointestinal dysfunction due to imperfect organ development, which will be accompanied by transient intestinal spasm and periumbilical pain, but the body does not have fever, vomiting, diarrhea and other abnormal reactions. According to reports, this pain does not have a certain regularity, and the degree of pain is not the same, but it is generally very short-lived and can be relieved quickly.

1. In addition to the symptoms of stomach pain before going to bed, does the child have other manifestations, such as teeth grinding at night, frequent stool, fever, cough and other phenomena.

2. It may be that you have a cold, causing stomach pain;

3. It may also be that the child has eaten something bad and has a stomachache;

4. It is also possible that the child has worms in his stomach;

5. It may even be a stomachache caused by strenuous activities after dinner;

6. Or if the child is constipated and has a painful stomach, as a parent, it is best to find out the cause of the abdominal pain, rule out the pathological cause first, go to the hospital for examination, and then prescribe the right medicine after confirming what the disease is.

There are many causes of abdominal pain in children, such as: cold, enteritis, dyspepsia, parasitic infection, etc., it is recommended that you check it out first. In particular, there is a possibility of mesenteric lymphadenopathy, inflammation and gastritis.
