HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, it could be colicky abdomen pain and most probably it could be due to worm infestation I would advise to rule this out on confirmation it may requires antihelminthics till then for pain Dicyclomine can be used the most worry part is intestinal obstruction and care needs to be taken for that, accordingly hope this information helps.
