Patient's question:
When the baby was two weeks old again had a twitch in hands and feet and woke up crying loudly. The doctor recommended taking cod liver oil. After taking cod liver oil, the number of bowel movements gradually increased until it became once a day. But after the baby turned a month old, he developed constipation. Now he only has a bowel movement every three to four days and needs to use glycerin suppositories to relieve it. The baby is now two months old and still has twitching upon waking and constipation, as well as night crying. I don't know what to do?Doctor's answer:
Is this situation caused by symptoms of low calcium leading to tics, or should you go to the local hospital's pediatric department for a follow-up examination and careful check-up in a timely manner? You can go to the local hospital's pediatric department for a follow-up examination and careful check-up, have a cranial CT to rule out intracranial diseases, have blood tests to check trace elements, carefully observe whether it is caused by low calcium, identify the cause, and then implement additional treatment. Constipation in the stool can be treated with oral probiotics to adjust gastrointestinal function and aid digestion, and the symptoms will gradually stabilize. The above is advice on the question "Baby had hand and foot tics and woke up crying loudly again at half a month old," hoping it helps you, and wishing you health!
