Child. Swollen Stomach, Vomiting. History Of Surgery For Malrotation Of Bowels, Wheezing, Allergy, Eczema. Serious Problem?

My 3 year old had surgery for malrotation and volvulas of the bowels 2.5 years ago. He suffered with wheezing before and after being admitted to hospital. He has croup episodes ending it treatment at hospital, has allergic reactions breaking out with hives, has had loose stools in the past through fruit juice. Had a constant runny nose. Severe eczema with finally we recently started to get under control through cutting out cows milk and switching to oats milk. Recently we have noticed his tummy being swollen and he has vomited twice over the last few months and then been ok after. I am wondering if all this is connected some way and he is clearly suffering with intolerances.

Pediatrician 's  Response
Hi,

Thank you for your query.

By your description your son is better after cutting on his cow milk. I shall not worry about an occasional vomit but swelling of the abdomen needs to be investigated. I shall advise you to consult your doctor and, if need be, get an ultrasound of the whole abdomen to know more about the swelling.

I hope I have answered your query to your satisfaction.

Wishing your son an early recovery.

Regards,
