Patient's question:
A week and a half, the girl is doing well during the day, but she always has trouble sleeping at night. She seems to cry out like she's having a nightmare for a moment, then if you pat her, she falls back asleep. This happens about six or seven times during the night.Previous treatment and effectiveness: No matter what kind of help was given: What's going on here? What should be done?
Doctor's answer:
Crying comes in two types: one is physiological crying. This is an instinctive response, a way for babies to express their emotions and seek comfort, which may be due to hunger, temperature changes, excessive fright, or nightmares. In this case, parents only need to calmly soothe the baby to help it regain complete calm. Apart from pathological crying, which requires sufficient attention, any illness that causes pain, itching, or discomfort to the child will make it cry uncontrollably, such as fever, eczema, rickets, oral herpes, pinworm infection, and intussusception.Advice: When a baby cries again at night for no apparent reason, parents should first consider physiological causes and then think about pathological factors. If necessary, it is important to seek medical attention promptly.
