Question

A child wakes up suddenly at night and cries uncontrollably, accompanied by restlessness, and it is unknown what previous treatments have been and their effectiveness.

Answer

This has happened many times before. I want to know what the possible causes might be. The child is 15 months old and still quite young, not very good at speaking, and sometimes many discomforts cannot be expressed correctly. Therefore, they need to express themselves through crying. If the child wakes up in the middle of the night and cries, it doesn’t necessarily mean it’s caused by illness. It could be because they are hungry, too warm or too cold due to too many or too few blankets, thirsty, or needing to go to the bathroom, etc. Parents need to be patient and observe carefully at this time. Comfort the child, and it will pass. Don’t worry too much about it.
