Unexplained chronic morning abdominal pain

@thechia Your son is really in a bad situation. He probably just wants to be a typical boy and here he is, limping along. How old is your son? I ask because it sounds similar to my son when he was a young teen. He could barely walk because of pain in the backs of his lower legs. The pediatrician said it was his growing spurt and was very common at his age. I thought it sounded crazy but, made sure he did the exercises the doc gave him. The doctor was right—the exercises really helped (and he did get taller). I’m not saying that my son is anywhere near your son, it just seemed the same.

@becsbuddy So very true that he wasn't to be a typical "boy." His issues started in high school (he is college age now) when they discovered he had scoliosis, and then he was in the hospital for a week where they finally said he has IBS-C. Since then, he has been diagnosed with Ehlers Danlos and a mild tremor. His daily concerning pain is abdominal, not in his legs (although he does have minor aches and pains from the scoliosis/Ehlers Danlos) and you are right that exercises do help that in a way. We really wish someone can find a "cure" for whatever is causing the daily abdominal pain though as it is debilitating in the mornings.
