Food related?: This could be related to what he has eaten.As long as the stool is mostly brown and has no blood in it and is not all white, I would not worry. I would recommend reviewing his diet, make sure he’s eating plenty of fiber and drinking plenty of fluids. If his stomach aches become regular or the stools are pure white or any blood, please discuss this with his doctor.
