Well, as far as I know there isn't. I found this on an American site:
“Do pediatricians call it colic when they don’t know why a baby is hurting?” she asked bluntly. She was right. A gastroenterologist I often work with once confided to me: “Colic is a five-letter word for ‘I don’t know’.
"When an adult hurts, the doctor and patient do some detective work to track down the cause of the pain, so they can fix it. So, I started approaching my evaluation of colicky babies with this in mind. First, I dropped the term “colic” from my diagnosis list and adopted the term “the hurting baby.” Besides being more accurate, this motivated both the parents and myself to keep searching for a cause, and a way to fix it."
If this is the same as what you're referring to, then it does seem as though there is no official term for it - yet!
Unless someone knows better.
