Stomach ache and frequent stool passing
Hello, my daughter is 4.5 years old with 18.5 kgs and 102 cm height. She is suffering from stomach ache since the last 4 days and is having regular normal stool that eases her pain. Loose motions were there initially and now no loose motion but frequent stool passing with stomach ache. Anything to be worried about and any suggestions please. No fever and the kid is eating ok but less than usual.
