hi Thanks for your query i can feel your concerns if he is pale with frequent pain and gastointestinal upsets then coeliac could be a possibility. u can rule out by doing certain tests and biopsy after consulting your doctor. is he having diarrohea ?
i advise you to check his haemoglobin level and if found low,then give him iron suppements after consulting your doctor
Deworm him
improve his diet.add meat,fresh green leafy vegetables and fruit to his diet
