Hi! Thank you for posting!
I have gone through your query and I understand your concerns.
According to all the symptoms you described above, I think that your son might suffer from peptic ulcer.
Your son needs to avoid some types of food from his diet such as: spicy food, milk,carbonated drinks.
In order to find the right diagnosis, you need the following tests:
- Fibrogastroendoscopy
- Complete blood count
- Liver test
- Urine test
The treatment of peptic ulcer contains proton pump inhibitors.
In order to discuss about the diagnosis and treatment, you need to contact your gastroenterologist.
All the best,
Dr. Behar.
