How to handle a startled newborn

Patient's question:

My baby is a premature child, and I was very worried about the child's condition from the beginning. Recently, the child has appeared with this series of conditions, and I am also very worried, afraid that the child will become worse. Please ask how to handle it if a newborn is startled.

Doctor's answer:

The symptoms of the child may be caused by calcium deficiency. Timely calcium supplementation and treatment can help. It's also okay to call for help in a timely manner. Monitor the child's symptoms promptly and provide symptomatic treatment. Early recovery is recommended. In this case, it is advisable to actively use povidone-iodine for disinfection and simultaneously apply Yunnan Baiyao locally for simple bandaging. The symptoms will improve quickly, so you don't need to worry too much. During this period, pay attention to providing the baby with more fluids and keeping the umbilical area clean and dry.
