An adult experiencing a high level of stress is at a greater risk for accidents and certain stress-related illnesses such as headaches, depression, gastrointestinal disorders, and infections. Although it is important to give the patient information regarding normal stages of growth and development in school-age children; this is not the cause of the symptoms. Referral to a gastroenterologist would occur after stress management techniques have been tried; or symptoms become worse. Calling a moving company does not address the real problem of stress. |
