Question
Why does my premature baby experience unintentional tremors during growth? Is it normal?
Answer
Unintentional tremors in infants during growth can be a part of normal development, but they can also be a sign of health issues such as vitamin D or calcium deficiency, hypoxemia, or ischemic encephalopathy. If the tremors occur occasionally without accompanying other abnormal symptoms, they are usually normal. However, if the tremors become more severe, occur frequently, or are accompanied by symptoms like abnormal eye positioning, medical attention should be sought immediately. Additionally, after a baby falls, observe for 72 hours to ensure there are no abnormalities. If necessary, further examination should be conducted to rule out potential brain problems.
