Newborn Pediatrics, why is my baby’s sleep unstable? My baby was born prematurely, and I have always been worried about his condition. Recently, he has shown some abnormal symptoms, which have made me even more worried, fearing that the situation might worsen. Can you explain why my baby’s sleep is unstable?
Answer
Hello, this condition may be due to calcium deficiency. It is advisable to take your child to the hospital for a check-up on trace elements promptly, confirm the deficiency, and supplement calcium in a moderate amount. Additionally, for patients with muscle weakness, consider seeking traditional Chinese medicine treatment. This can involve using herbs that promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, activate meridians and collaterals, and nourish the kidneys and marrow, as well as taking medications like brompyrisal tablets for symptomatic treatment.
