A member asked:

10-year old has gerd and takes meds for it. gets severe stomach aches after exertion. is the gerd causing this or could it be something else?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

10 yo with GERD: it certainly could be related to the GERD causing some asthma. You need to take him in to his doc and get this evaluated.
