Question
A father inquired about his four-year-old son who frequently cries during nap time at night, a condition that has persisted for over a year and a half. In addition to nighttime crying, the child exhibits other symptoms such as crying uncontrollably when lightly touched, inability to be comforted, and not knowing why he cried upon waking, especially after playing during the day. They have not previously consulted a doctor and hope to understand if their child is alright.
Answer
Based on the father’s description, the child’s nighttime crying may be due to a deficiency in micronutrients such as calcium or zinc. It is recommended that the child be taken to the hospital for a detailed check of micronutrients. If there is indeed a deficiency, it should be immediately supplemented, such as by taking a calcium and zinc oral solution from Haixia Pharmaceuticals No. 6. I hope the above suggestions are helpful to you, and may you and your child remain healthy!
