What causes a 15-month-old baby to cry repeatedly?

Patient's question:

At 1:30 in the morning, a 15-month-old baby has already started crying with closed eyes. No matter how they are held (horizontally or vertically), they cry non-stop. When put to bed, they roll around and cannot fall asleep. What could be the symptom?

Doctor's answer:

According to the situation you described, the baby is crying at night at 15 months. This situation is likely caused by a lack of trace elements. You should take the baby to a regular Grade III-A hospital pediatric department for a trace element test. Check how deficient the baby is in calcium, zinc, iron, etc. Based on the examination results, supplement the element that is lacking, and if there is no deficiency, there is no need to supplement. When the sun is out during the day, you can take the baby out to sunbathe for 15 minutes to half an hour. Pay attention to the absorption of calcium in the baby. At the same time, supplement vitamin D.
