Suggest Cause And Remedy For Stomach Grumbling In Children

But from Friday its been continuous with alot of stomach grumbling. Took him to hospital but they needed his stool so that they could run tests but so far he s only had loose stool twice so am hoping today I can be able to get his stool and take for testing. One thing though, what do you think the problem could be? When I took him to hospital, the doctor prescribed Cyclopam

The symptoms you told are related to the amoebisis or giardiasis, which is common cause of such abdominal pain. I would like to suggest to take anti-amoebic treatment after stool test. Herbal medicines are also effective in such condition and you can have amoebica tablets 1 thrice a day for 10 days for your son.
