How to solve the problem of a child crying non-stop at night

Patient's question:

It's very good during the day, but at night, the baby cries every hour while taking a nap. Holding the baby down doesn't help. The local hospital checked the trace elements and found that the calcium level is below the minimum standard, even though the child has been taking calcium supplements.
Previous Treatment and Effects: Received D3 injections.
What kind of help is needed: Hello doctor, what should we do?

Doctor's answer:

Crying comes in two types: one is physiological crying. This is an instinctive response, a way for babies to express their emotions and seek comfort, which may be caused by hunger, temperature changes, excessive fright, or nightmares. In this case, parents only need to calmly soothe the baby to help it regain complete calm.
The other type is pathological crying, which requires sufficient attention. Any illness that causes pain, itching, or discomfort to the baby will make it cry uncontrollably, such as fever, eczema, rickets, oral herpes, pinworm infection, and intussusception.
