Suggest Treatment For Chronic Abdominal Pain
Question: hi my son is suffering from abdominal pain after he does a bowel movement which makes him feel sick and has been ongoing for 10months.
Brief Answer:
Check for typhoid
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for your query.
Need to know if the abdominal pain is localized or generalized. The symptoms seem to fit in scenario of typhoid. Though this is more common in tropical areas but can also be found elsewhere. Kindly get checked with typhidot or widal test. It is better to drink cleaner water and hygienic food to avoid such type of infections.
If it is a localized pain i.e he is pinpointing the pain to a particular region then examination by a surgeon followed by an ultrasound of abdomen will be needed.
Hope it helps.

Your pain seems originating from midgut. Anatomical causes include appendicitis and intestinal obstruction. Otherwise infection and acidity can cause these symptoms.
Kindly get checked for infection and take appropriate precautions to avoid GI infections. Avoid excessive/unnecessary antibiotics, probiotics and yogurt.
