Patient's question:
2-month-old baby suddenly stretches and trembles their hands and feet, as if scared of being startled. After stretching, you can see the child's fearful expression, and then they start crying. The baby must be held to sleep. Traditional Chinese medicine is also medicine, so is it necessary to take it? Should I be shocked by the medicine or what? I don't know what to do. I can't keep enduring it day and night without sleeping, just holding them... Even when she's extremely tired, holding her makes her close her eyes and fall asleep immediately, but as soon as she's put down, she suddenly jerks awake with her hands and feet. The child is in good spirits and usually laughs when she's amused.Previous treatment history and effectiveness: Taken pediatric Gourd Powder prescribed by the doctor, no allergies, no family medical history.
