What Cause Gas Trouble For My Kids?

My 2 and 5 year old have been releasing very strong odored gas over the last couple of week. Their diets have not changed. My 5 year old frequently complains of stomach pains during meal time. And the 2 year old has been rather irritable lately. Are these things to be concerned about? Parasite related?

Hi,
Thank you for asking question on health care magic.
Cyclopam syrup will relive pain as well as gas problem temporarily.
Irrespective of worm infestation Albendazole single dose at bed time may be given to both children.
You may try Metronidazole syrup for giardiasis or Amoebic colitis.
Lanzol syrup 2 times daily will also be of some benefit.
Within a weeks time if he is not alright consult pediatrician for thorough investigation and treatment.
Hope this answer will serve your purpose
Please feel free to ask any more queries if required
Take care
