My 9 years old cousin suffering from abdominal pain and after that pain he vomit always. Doctor prescribed him x-ray and also USG of abdomen. Both these result are normal, but his problem is still the same. Now his doctor prescribed him endoscopy of abdomen. So my question is. Is it ok (safe) to go through endoscopy? As, he is only 9 years old. And what could be the reason of his abdominal pain. Please respond to my question at the earliest.
