What are the symptoms of neonatal hardening?

Patient's question:

The baby has been feeling unwell for a while and has been crying a lot. They went to the hospital for a check-up, and the doctor there said the baby has infant hard edema. What kind of poor symptoms are usually associated with this disease? I would like to ask, what symptoms belong to infant hard edema?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, this parent. When your baby has hard edema, there is usually a hardened area on the skin, accompanied by some purplish discoloration. If you touch the baby's body, you may feel a low temperature. Such symptoms should be treated promptly, as they can have adverse effects on the kidneys. When going out, it's important to take measures to protect your baby's body from cold and keep it warm.
