General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hello,

The unusual bloating of stomach with significant belly discomfort and inability to pass stool indicates congenital disorder of gut development most likely. The recent work up with an X-ray of the abdomen, ultrasound with or without CT scan are of paramount importance in this matter. Surgery is a requirement in many of the instances, however, clinician approach of pediatric surgeon is best decision maker.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
