Question

The child has been crying non-stop lately, and doesn’t eat much. Could a baby’s sudden crying lead to illness?

Answer

Hello, this situation is considered to be caused by calcium deficiency, often manifested as sudden waking up at night and crying, or having fear responses. You can do a blood trace element test and follow the principle of ‘supplement what is lacking’. Eat more foods high in calcium, such as fish and bone broth. Cephalosporin antibiotics are not forbidden; they can be taken if the child has a bacterial infection. If the child has enteritis, they should take cefixime, and if they have poor digestion, they can take probiotics to observe the situation.
