Patient's question:
Baby started crying at night after 5 months, tried several nights, and later took Baoyingdan. Also had someone help the baby "weigh ears," which had some effect, but it wasn't thorough—baby still experienced night crying. What could be the symptom?Doctor's answer:
Hello, friend. Night crying refers to children crying at night, usually occurring shortly after falling asleep, and is often related to rickets. Rickets is primarily caused by a lack of vitamin D, leading to calcium and phosphorus metabolic disorders, resulting in hypocalcemia. This makes children more neuroexcitable at night, causing them to cry or fuss. Therefore, for the phenomenon of infant night crying, we need to first identify the specific cause before treating it.
