Patient's question:
My baby is 43 days old. These past two nights, he can only sleep for a short while before crying. The most he can manage is about two hours. In the morning, he sleeps a bit better, but doesn't nap in the afternoon. He doesn't have a stuffy nose or a cough, but when he wheezes, it sounds like mucus, and I can't tell if it's coming from his throat or nose. His urine is yellow, sometimes with a bit of milk curd, and he urinates about four or five times, most of which are just a little. I don't know what could be causing this, so I wanted to ask if acupuncture could help. The main issue is that he always wakes up during his nap, and lately, he's been crying a lot.Doctor's answer:

In the morning, he sleeps a bit better, but doesn't nap in the afternoon. He doesn't have a stuffy nose or a cough, but when he breathes, it sounds like mucus, unsure if it's coming from his throat or nose. His urine is yellow, sometimes with a little bit of curd, and he urinates about four or five times, most of which are just a little. I don't know what the reason is, so I wanted to ask if acupuncture can help. The main issue is that he always wakes up during his nap and has been crying a lot recently. It's also recommended to give the baby digestive vitamins and vitamin D.
