Hi please can I have a private post.
My 3 year old daughter has been complaining on and off with a sore belly for about 4 months now and has been doing seriously huge & loud burps. She has also vomited randomly a few times within these months. I always put it down to just kids belly ache (but I was keeping an eye on it all). On Tuesday night last week she asked me to rub her belly when I was putting her to bed and I thought I would check if it was all soft as they say as long as belly soft all should be ok. To my horror I found a hard mass under her stomach on her left side under her ribs. I took her to a&e the next day after talking to 111 that night. The doctor seemed concerned saying she will need an ultrasound, blood tests & urine sample but he wasn’t going to keep her in as she is well in herself. The following day at my own doctors the doctor said it was a loaded colon. I told him she poos twice a day everyday so he said he will send her for X-ray but not urgent.
I am so worried and anytime I google it obviously the cancer word keeps coming up, my grandad died from colon cancer, I am petrified. I don’t know if I should bring her up to a&e today as she is complaining about a sore belly since last again.
Why wouldn’t the first doctor have just told me it was a loaded colon.
Has anyone else ever felt a hard mass in there child’s belly? She doesn’t suffer from constipation. Sorry for my huge post I just don’t know what to do.
