Question
Parent Inquiry: My baby, who is 1 year and 3 months old, has been crying very intensely at night recently, and also seems listless during the day. We have taken him to the hospital for blood, urine, stool, and urine tests, as well as an X-ray of the chest, but no abnormalities were found. The doctor has only recommended hospital observation without determining the cause.
Answer
Doctor’s Advice: There may be signs of an infectious disease in the baby’s blood count, but it is not ruled out that it could be a sudden drop in immunity or a late stage recovery from an illness. In the latter case, it is necessary to enhance nutrition to promote physical recovery. Please pay attention to observation and maintain close contact with the doctor.
