My 5 yr old began complaining about abdominal pain along with front Right shoulder pain about 5 hours ago. Pain did not lessen with any position change. I gave her acetaminophen for shoulder pain and she went to sleep; she awoke recently, complaining of same symptoms. She put her hand over belly button to show me area of belly that hurts, and covered top front area of shoulder to show location of shoulder pain. She has since fallen back to sleep. Could this be her appendix?
Thanks for query. Pain below and middle is not classical of appendix. Shoulder pain is not matching with any of abdominal conditions. Check for any history of trains or injuries. Go for a per abdominal examination and ultrasound abdomen. Consult a GP. Regards
