Need to examine: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful response without examining your son. If he has failed to gain weight or lost weight, it is imperative that you consult a GI specialist to rule out mal-absorption, Celiac disease, or an endocrine disorder. Make sure he stays hydrated by drinking enough water so that his urine is mostly cololess. In the interim, you may try Immodium or Pepto-Bismol.
