My six year has had stomach aches for several years. The come on suddenly and then disappear What has been working is when passes gas and goes to bathroom. Drs have recommended miralax and this did not seem to make a difference actually he generally goes 1-2 times a day it does not hurt when he dedicates, If it is gas will a medication mask or help He is a small eater at dinner table he appears fit and has boy high energy spirit but eats throughout day He does like candy a lot and pasta and salad and some fruit. we try to limit soda, sweets etc He recently omitted while eating pizza and will not eat it again He is little anxious in as much he bites his nails At night if we put hair dryer on him or scratch his back the stomach aches subside Thank you, H Scheer
