Call his doctor. He might have a stomach virus or just a sensitive stomach due to the flu. Either way Capol or Tylenol will not do anything for a stomach ache. Only take down a fever or help with muscle aches & like pains.

Put a warm towel on his stomach ,you can put hot water on it , or heat it up. Then give him some motrin or some kind of pain reliever. &i would take him to a doctor, just to make sure everythings okay. Maybe it could have been something he ate? You could also try giving him green tea or something that would cleanse his system? Hope he feels better ! Goodluck(:

in my nursing book it says kids around ages 6 to 12 complaining of stomach pain might have an emotional problem, or something that is making them sad.  Let him sleep with you tonight and see if it is better tomorrow :)

increase his intake of probiotics, let him rest, avoid serving him processed foods, acid, or cow's milk products, wash all hands better, and give him clear fluids with bubbles.  follow up with the pediatrician.
