What causes abdominal pains in children?
10 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Lots of things!: Abdominal pain can be caused by a long list of conditions, ranging from constipation to appendicitis. Any part of the belly can have a problem that causes pain; stress can cause belly pain in kids as well as adults. The best way to sort it out is to have your child seen by his/her doctor, who will do a thorough exam and see if any other tests are needed.

Many things: Two main categories: acute vs chronic. In the acute you may find appendicitis, intestinal obstruction or infections. Chronic would include constipation, gastritis and food allergies. Sometimes acute and chronic mix together. There are many many other causes for here to mention, but i listed the most frequent that come to mind.
