Can babies who always cry and fuss drink probiotics?

Patient's question:

Can I ask if a baby who has been crying for three and a half months has a hoarse throat from crying, and if holding him upright and walking around increases his crying, is it possible that he has indigestion and could benefit from taking probiotics?

Doctor's answer:

I'm glad to explain your question. According to your description, your baby is already three months old and can be held upright. The baby cries excessively, so it's essential to find out the reason for the crying, such as: hunger, discomfort after urination or defecation, abdominal pain, or general discomfort. Only when it's confirmed that the baby is completely normal can we assume that the crying is due to the need for companionship and comfort. If the baby has abdominal pain or abnormal bowel movements, you can use probiotics to regulate intestinal function. You can also apply warmth or cold compresses to the baby's abdomen and gently massage in a clockwise direction on the lower abdomen to help relieve gas. I hope my explanation helps you. Wishing your little one health and a joyful transformation!
