Most children who become infected with the COVID-19 virus have only a mild illness. But in children who go on to develop MIS-C (Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children) , some organs and tissues such as the heart, lungs, blood vessels, kidneys, digestive system, brain, skin or eyes become severely inflamed. Children with underlying medical conditions are at increased risk for severe illness compared to children without underlying medical conditions. children with COVID-19 may experience digestive symptoms such as vomiting, diarrhea and nausea all of which can cause abdominal pain.
