Pediatrician 's  Response
Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns. I suggest you to consult a surgeon and get an ultrasound abdomen, blood test to rule out severe conditions-acute appendicitis and etc. You can give him Charcoal 2 tablets and drotaverine 1 tablet to relieve pain.
Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions.

Wishing you child good health.
