Gastroenteritis: is he experiencing abdominal pain or rectal pain when he poops ? If it is abdominal pain, then heat such as a heating pad could be helpful. Also tylenol (acetaminophen) can relieve the discomfort . The use of probiotics is often good for infectious diarrhea and helps the cramping. if his rectum is sore then vaseline applied to area 2-3 x/ day can help. If not better then stool cultures may be necessary
