Anxiety?: If your doc has ruled out (by testing) physical causes for your child’s bodily complaints, a psychological evaluation would probably help to uncover underlying problems. The onset of clinical anxiety is typically around six years old, usually at the same time children start school full-time. Patients with chronic bodily complaints (somatization) show high levels o worry, and anxiety.
