Hi, unusual though it may sound, your son probably suffers from acidity and indigestion. The constipation is also probably due to indigestion. Sometimes it may be a food intolerance or allergy. Please try giving him some over the counter medicine for acidity continuously for about a week and see if the symptoms reduce. If it does not, get a stool examination (for worms and other infections) and blood test for H Pylori infection. Also note down if the complaints appear after eating any particular food and do see his Paediatrician if the complaints persist. Regards.
