Hello,My Son is three months old, he s suffering from acute gastric and flatulence.. He was diagnosed with jaundice when he was 6 days old the level of bilirubin was 11.7, it took long 6-7 weeks to cure jaundice... After a few days he started having stomach aches n very acute gastric problem. He was first advised normal/general Colicaid n Gripe water... But the problem was severe that he was immediately prescribed Espumisan, Neopeptine and Drotin(SOS) it s been over a month with no relief... He farts like adults n that too with too much difficulty his stomach swells like a big HARD ball. Recently we got his stool test done the report is - PUS 5-6 with presence of mucus and Reaction RH is 6.3 also RBC - 1-2. Please Advice Regards Sourav Moudgil

Hi...Thank you for consulting in Health Care magic.
This is called evening colic and is quite common in this age group. This happens when the baby sucks at the breast very fast and in eagerness to drink milk will gulp in air too. Unless the air comes out like burping or flatus this discomfort will be there and next time check if she is sucking too fast and gulping in air too. You will be more convinced. Usually I don't advice any medicines for this as they give only temporary relief.
Hope my answer was helpful for you. I am happy to help any time. Further clarifications and consultations on Health care magic are welcome. If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer. Wish your kid good health.
