Dear parent, for the stomach pain you can use an antispasmodic as vesceralgine. for diarrhea you can use an over the counter antidiarrheal drug together with an oral rehydration solution 5 tea spoons for every pound of his weight to avoid dehydration . offer only soft and easily swallowed food as soup , yoghurt or jelly
