My son constantly complains about stomachaches. It hurts when he needs to go to the bathroom, it hurts when he's hungry, it hurts after he eats, it hurts when he's thirsty, it hurts when he wants a treat... but as soon as he eats the treat, the pain is gone. We've had ultrasounds and tests done, everything is normal. The doctor noticed he has gas, and indeed, he farts a lot. He also suffers from constipation, but that's been since birth. A couple of times he'll say it hurts, I kiss him, and he goes back to playing. What could this be?

My ultrasound and tests were also normal. I was admitted to the hospital, and that's where they found the cause of my pain. They did a contrast X-ray and I had to swallow a "light bulb" pill. They did a lot of tests there.

The hospital found the cause:
A kink in the gallbladder isthmus.
This is causing pain, gas, and constipation.

We're the same.
It's psychological. We've also been to the ER a hundred times, had ultrasounds, and taken tests. Everything is fine.

When my son had a stomach ache, we saw doctors, a gastroenterologist. He had bloating, and they found the cause was a gluten allergy and lactose intolerance. He got treatment, and now he's all good.

Get an ultrasound.
It could be a gallbladder flexure. But I don't know if it happens at that age.
My daughter used to complain about stomach pain at random times, and it turned out to be a gallbladder flexure with subsequent stagnation. It's not a big deal; people live with it.
I myself only found out by chance at 37 that I also have a flexure 🫣

It's a mix of gas, psychological pain, and discomfort – basically, no understanding, just pain.

It might be good to get a gastroscopy. An ultrasound won't show anything special.
