What Causes Stomach Cramps For A Nine-year-old?

Hi, my 9 year old son suffers from stomach cramps constantly and has diarrhea on a daily basis as well as loud prolonged flatulence. This has been a issue for a long period of time with no medical results. He has had a colonoscopy and an endoscopy to find out any problems and everything was clear. I have heard on the radio about something called EPI and am wondering how to find out if this may be the issue.

Hi,     
Welcome To Healthcare Magic.

I can understand your concern about your child’s health.

First of all stop giving him sprouts as they produce flatulence because of its tendency. Also avoid other than home-made food, fermented food, any type of preservative food like ketchup, pickle, food packets, bakery items like pizza, biscuits, cakes, etc..

Start giving him fresh home-made food, fiber diet, fresh fruit juices, green vegetables. Also give 1 glass of warm water at night every day.

As you are saying you listened about EPI, so please share the information about it to us so we can rule out for it because I don’t think there will be EPI to him.

After doing all these things I hope your child will get well sooner and please share your review about my answer on healthcare magic.

Take Care,
Thank You.
