What could cause my son's stomach pain and discomfort?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

My five year old son lives in a village and is habitual of having milk twice a day. As he loves milk sometimes, he drinks raw milk (unsterilized milk). His father owns a dairy business. For the last one week, he is not feeling well and mostly complained about having a stomach ache, fatigue and usually restless. What would be the likely reason for such complaint?

Answered by Dr. Faisal Abdul Karim Malim

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

  1. There could be some gas problem probably, which is a minor issue.
  2. I suggest syrup Colicaid (Simethicone) half teaspoon thrice a day for three days.
  3. Also, I would advise against drinking raw milk. Please sterilize and drink. Please educate your son about raw milk that it can cause diseases and the need for sterilization.

For further information consult a pediatrician online.
