Question
Why does a newborn cry from abdominal pain and have difficulty pooping? I have treated it before, but the effect is not obvious. Can you tell me what’s going on? Are there any solutions?
Answer
Based on the parent’s description, the baby’s symptoms may be due to constipation or discomfort in the abdomen. After the baby defecates, this discomfort is relieved, as the baby’s nervous system is still developing and cannot control the sphincters well. If diagnosed with enteritis, rapid treatment is necessary to improve the baby’s symptoms. If parents merely suspect enteritis, they should observe the baby’s bowel movements and conduct a stool test to determine the actual situation.
