My son is 3 years and 10 months old. For the last 7 to 8 days he has been feeling discomfort in his stomach. I gave him Enterogermina for 3 days, twice a day, but it did not reduce. Now he feels this discomfort in different places like the middle of the chest, left side of the chest, right side of the stomach under the ribs, and above and below the navel. This discomfort lasts for a few seconds and happens 9 to 10 times a day. For the last 3 to 4 days his motion is normal. His urine routine test report is also normal. His pediatrician checked him and told me that physically he has no problem. He prescribed Drotin DS 7.5 ml, twice daily, but after giving this medicine the problem increased. He does not have any other problems and is playful. What should I do? Should I stop this medicine?

Pain migrating around the abdomen without other findings may suggest gas, reflux, or colic. Please take a stool test and abdominal ultrasound to rule out infection or structural issues.

I feel a sensation of gas formation while sitting, along with slight pain. Could this be due to hemorrhoids or a urinary infection? What tests or scans should I get to find out?

Dear Sir I am getting light colored stool with black holes and particles. It looks like leafy blood or undigested food. I tested RUT positive one month ago and took treatment for 14 days. I have attached my report. How can I clear this?
