Question

Newborns often cry after one month, with crying decreasing when held and increasing when put down. What could be the possible causes or diseases? Is it due to calcium deficiency? If it is indeed calcium deficiency, how should the mother supplement?

Answer

If a newborn shows symptoms such as excessive sweating, hair loss at the nape of the neck, and night terrors, consider whether it might be rickets. If there are no such symptoms, there should be no excessive worry. It is recommended to have a balanced diet, strengthen care, avoid adverse stimulation, and appropriately supplement vitamin C and B-group vitamins. If rickets is diagnosed, actively supplement vitamin D and appropriately supplement calcium gluconate. The above information is for reference.
