Hi,
First of all it's sad to know what your kid had been going through lately.
Based on the history you have shared, you can feed your kid with lactulose free milk available in the market but cow milk may not be tolerated.
However after two years of age, he should be evaluated again as some may resolve after some time.
If diarrhea or signs of malabsorption persists, life long avoidance may also be needed.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
