How to deal with a 8-month-old baby's stomach pain and crying

Patient's question:

My baby is now 8 months old. Recently, she has been very fussy, especially at night when she doesn't like to sleep and always cries. Sometimes she also has stomach pain. Please ask the doctor, what should I do if my baby cries at night and has stomach pain?

Doctor's answer:

According to the symptoms described, the child seems to have developed an intestinal infection, which has caused symptoms of enteritis. Currently, there is still some mucus in the stool, and there has been some crying. It is considered that it is still caused by indigestion. The child should be taken to a formal pediatric department for diagnosis and treatment. Intravenous fluids and anti-inflammatory treatment may be necessary if needed. It is recommended that the child get proper rest and avoid giving them random food. Pay close attention to keeping the child warm, avoid getting cold, and pay special attention to keeping the abdomen warm.
