Suggest Medication For Indigestion

Hi, my four year old son passes wind a lot and they are very smelly. When I say a lot I mean a lot, it's almost continual. He will give me a cuddle and all I can smeel is his gas. He is clean and does not soil his pants. I have tried taking several thins out of diet but to no avail.

Thanks
