Linda C	Is she going to the bathroom regulary or not? If not, it could be that. I would monitor that. If you want professional advice online, I suggest www.medsocial.com, there are a lot of med students and medical professions on that site, as well as knowledge people. Was this answer helpful to you?

istupidice	Could it be appendix? But I think appendix is on the right hand side. I am not sure. It is good that she is at the A&E. Can u call your husband and ask him to tell the nurses that it could be accute appendix and its the thrid day and it can burst any time. I hope she is seen to very soon. I hope I am wrong about the appendix all together. Try to relax she is at the right place now. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

charlie h	when i have had to take my kids to A & E on a Friday night ive been waiting sometimes for 4 hours plus. If they see that shes in that much pain though she should get seen fairly quickly.

iamblondie45	Pain could still be because of the start of womenhood. could be caused from her appendix too. good luck and i hope she is better soon. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

spiderwickgirl	My brother had something similar, now this could be really serious or it could be the flu. Take her to the ER and have them check her out, they will know what to do. What happened with my brother BTW is that they gave him some fluids in an IV and a stuffed animal. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Granny	check for pin worm, go to the doctor. i really don't want to get in to how you do that, I'm hoping as a mother you will know. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

margaretswett@sbcglobal.net	It sounds like your husband has taken her to the emergency clinic, which is good. Never know with these things, my husband had to have his appendix removed when he was 11 because it burst. Could be that worse, and then maybe not. Relieved to hear she is going to be seen. No worries, just prayers for an awesome recovery! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

richard_beckham2001	Could be appendicitis, but i'm no doctor. Don't worry she will be in safe hands now. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Lyss	The appendix is on the right side and pain from appendicitis is usually only on the right side. So you don't really have to worry about that. I don't have any suggestions but I hope she gets better soon. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Wicked	don't worry and get upset. 1. if it is nothing seious you still will need to take care of a sick child 2. if she is real sick then you will need to stay by her and stay calm 3. there are many things that this could be, including a bad case of the flu worry when they say that something is wrong. Hopefully they will call from the med center and tell you what is happening Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

woolly worm	IT SOUNDS LIKE SHE MAY HAVE APPENDICITIS. BUT DONT WORRY, ALL WILL BE NORMAL SOON. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

connor'snana	you never said how old your daughter is but my daughter at nine was complaining of similar pain and location and we took her to her regular peditrician and he tried to tell me that kids that age often say things for attention,to stay out of school and alot more worthless and I know my daughter she just wasn't like that so I took her 3 days later to a urologist and come to find out she was badly contaminated with e-coli bacteria in her urine and it came from NOT wiping front to back and he told me it was very common in young girls.She had no pain down there at anytime and she was put on an atibiotic and was showing improvment in a couple of days.Hope this info is helpful.Good Luck on her feeling well again!!!!mitzic63@yahoo Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

TYF	I don't know what a&e is. I hope that's the name of your local hospital. Call her pediatrician (even if they have to wake up the emergency doctor on call.) Describe everything to him. If he thinks you should take her to the emergency room, to so right away. Also, you should not be giving her Ibuprofen (or ANY over-the-counter medication) for more than two weeks. I wouldn't be surprised if that pain was coming from her liver. Actually, from what you described, I think she pointed at her liver. The good news is, that the liver is the only organ in the body that can actually regenerate itself, and you've probably caught it in plenty of time. Anyway, it looks like you're saying she's currently at the hospital and you're waiting worrying for the results. Don't worry! Kids that young heal much better than adults, plus they get higher priority if there's need for an organ transplant. But chances are, it's not that severe. She might have something lodged in her intestine, like a pebble. They would need to dig it out, but they can do that sort of thing without cutting. I really wish I could say something more comforting, but the fact is, there's the chance it could be really bad, although there's a bigger chance that she'll be just fine!! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Julie S	The area of pain sounds like it could be appendicitus, try not to worry too much as she is in the right place and will get treatment for whatever it is. You dont mention her age so dont know if she could be starting her periods, my daughter didn't have any pain when she started hers and she was 12. Hope you hear from your hubby soon so that it puts your mind at rest. Also hope all is well with your daughter soon. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

kiss	dont worry my daughter got tummy pains alot when she was little now shes into boys and i have to worry about different things im sure shes gonna bounce back kids always do xxx Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Hulio	Kidney stone? Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

angel	oh hon i do feel for you, my girl is 10 almost 11 she had pains in her tummy on Monday morning (i thought it was "that time as she is quite developed??), after giving her Paracetamol she was fine so i sent her to school, only to have a phone call to say she had been sick at school-how bad did i feel??!!! it could be her appendix?? at least your hubby has taken her to a&e to rule anything out. hope she is ok? my thoughts are with you, tough being a mum sometimes :( x x x x Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

bmac	Doesn't matter how long the wait is. Get her in there NOW. When you talk to the nurse (you know, when she asks what is wrong) tell her how much pain your child is in and they will get her seen fast. Don't say "Oh, she has a stomach ache" or you will sit there for HOURS. You have to tell them. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Meg	There are a lot of things that can cause this type of pain (and you didn't say how old your daughter was, but if she's 10 or older, it really could be the start of menstruation). MOST of the things that cause pain like that are not serious, and the fact you've all recently had a stomach bug really suggests to me that that is the most likely source. But it's GREAT that you guys have taken her to see a doctor, and you should have answers soon. Just keep in mind that she's at the a&e now and so she's safe -- you'll get a diagnosis soon and then can move forward with accurate inforomation. Keep us posted on what happens with the doctor! And hang in there! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Midwife Jane	What a worry! Such fun being a mum! If there has been a bug going about your family it is probably that..if she has not been sleeping because of it it will probably feel more painful. Both Ibuprofen and calpol (which is Paracetamol) can cause tummy pain if taken on an empty stomach, and if she has taken both together on an empty tummy then that very well may have made her feel worse :( It could very well be a long wait in A&E on a friday night...hang in there, go watch telly and have a cuppa and wait for hubby's call. I hope she's feeling better soon. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

trouble	what you doing on here, if this was my daughter i would be at the a and e with her, hope she is ok, Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

lynda w	I am sure she will be ok if your husband has taken her to the hospital dont worry she is in the best possible place. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
