Patient's question:
Doesn't have a fever, doesn't feel hot, and doesn't have diarrhea. There's a little poop every time the diaper is changed. This has only recently started, and it's unclear what's going on? For the past two days, the previous treatment and its effectiveness: No particular care was given. I just want to know what the reason is?Doctor's answer:
Infants with "physiological" crying are generally in good health, have normal appetite, loud cries, and normal facial color and spirits during the intervals between crying. When the triggering factors are completely eliminated, the crying stops.Infants with "pathological" crying have unusual cries, sometimes screaming, hoarse voices, and often sudden, intense crying. When accompanied by fever, they may appear listless, have pale faces, sometimes accompanied by dry retching, nausea, vomiting, or bloody stools, requiring further medical evaluation to determine the cause.
For otitis externa or boils, the infant cries more intensely when the affected ear is pressed close to the mother's body or when the affected ear is pulled.
