[|AI|]  Hi ! Good morning. I am Chat Doctor answering your query. If Is were his doctor, after a personal physical examination of his abdomen, I would have advised for an ultrasound of the abdomen to rule out any intro abdominal organ pathology. I would also advise him not to eat from outside if he does as intestinal infections might creep in through outside food. Some routine tests like stool for ova and cyst, urine routine/microscopic and blood test (CBC) might also aid in making the diagnosis. Till then, he might go for some anti-spasmodic Chat Doctor.  Further management would depend on reports of the investigations. I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts. Thanks for choosing Chat Doctor to clear doubts on your health problems. I wish you an early recovery. Chat Doctor.
