My son aged 9 has been having stomach aches for almost 5 months. The pain started as once a month, then once a week and now almost everyday. The stomach pain is not severe .it is sometimes mild and sometimes moderate. He has acid reflux also at times. We consulted a doctor and he prescribed pantodac 20 and omnicef o. However, I got an information that these medicines are not for small children. Is it so? Is it safe to give them? We did an ultrasound also .it showed mildly enlarged lymph nodes in stomach.

Reflux at this age is really worry some. Follow this 1. Don't take tea empty stomach. Eat something like a banana (if you are not diabetic) or any seasonal fruit or soaked almonds and a glass of water first thing in the morning (within 10 mins of waking up). No only biscuits or rusk will not do. 2. Don't overeat 3. Take your breakfast every day. Don't skip it. U should eat whatever your mother or grandparent eat in bfast. I mean to say whatever is your traditional food. If punjabi eat paratha, if belongs to south then take idli/ dosa etc. 4. Have light meals every 2 hours (in addition to your breakfast, lunch n dinner) e.g. Nariyal paani, chaach, a handful of dry fruits, a handful of peanuts, any fresh n seasonal fruit, a cup of curd/milk etc 5.
