What is it that children can't cry?

Patient's question:

What is it that makes a child unable to cry

Doctor's answer:

If a child is crying or having difficulty sleeping, it is necessary to identify the cause. Observe if there is redness or swelling around the anus, or if there are symptoms of bad breath and drooling. The cause may be an oral infection, such as thrush or stomatitis. If these symptoms are not present, consider whether it is due to calcium deficiency. Supplementing with calcium should help.
