Question
The baby is five months old and recently, when the head is close to it, a buzzing sound similar to a mobile phone’s electrical noise or a faint siren sound can be heard, continuously and without interruption. The baby feeds and sleeps normally, with no abnormal crying or fussiness, and all checks at birth were normal, without any signs of illness. What could be the cause of this sound?
Answer
The buzzing sound heard in the baby’s head may be due to a very thin epidermal keratin layer, causing capillaries to be distributed too superficially. This can lead to the formation of red veins or flushing on the face when exposed to cold or hot stimuli or emotional excitement. No special treatment is needed at present, but if the baby is troubled by other newborn diseases, it should be taken to a doctor immediately. Avoid using unverified medications and use medications reasonably. Parents should pay timely attention to their child’s condition and help them receive early treatment.
