Question
A two-month-old baby often clenches their teeth and twists their legs while crying, and their hands are also clenched into fists, appearing extremely uncomfortable. After an initial examination at the county-level hospital, no clear cause was identified. How should this situation be handled?
Answer
During infancy, it is common for children to show behaviors such as clenching their teeth, tensing their legs, and hands while crying. It is recommended for parents to continue observing the baby’s condition to determine if there is a specific cause. If this behavior persists, it is advised to bring the child to a pediatric department for an EEG examination to rule out the possibility of epilepsy. Further treatment will be based on the diagnosis results.
