Patient's question:
2 months, after taking a nap in the afternoon, he cried non-stop, neither drinking milk nor eating. When he cried until his mouth was dry, he drank water. After another nap, he cried again, crying so intensely that it was impossible to comfort him. It started crying in the afternoon today, which is unusual as he doesn't usually cry like this. Now he also has a runny nose.Past treatment and effectiveness: None.
What kind of help is needed: How can I stop the baby from crying?
Doctor's answer:
1. The baby is hungry.2. The baby has had a bowel movement or wet their diaper, and it hasn't been changed in time.
3. Pain in a certain part of the body (pain caused by redness in areas like the buttocks, armpits, or neck; stomach pain or discomfort; pain from fractures in the legs or arms, making the baby reluctant to move).
4. The baby is being fussy, wanting to be rubbed on the back, held, or rocked.
By carefully observing and addressing the baby's discomfort in these situations, you can help the baby cry more. However, it's not good to make the baby absolutely stop crying, because moderate crying can effectively increase the baby's lung capacity and promote the development of their lungs.
