If a newborn baby has any discomfort, it can only be expressed through crying, so a careful mother is needed to discover where the baby is uncomfortable. After becoming a mother, mothers are almost like superheroes, not afraid of fatigue, and no longer have lazy habits.

So how can we distinguish such symptoms?
Symptoms of intestinal spasm in children
Intestinal spasm is actually colic, which belongs to intestinal cramps. If you suddenly experience intermittent abdominal pain, sometimes severe and sometimes suddenly no longer painful, it often recurs repeatedly. Some patients may also experience recurrent abdominal pain, which is very serious and lasts for a long time. These are all manifestations of intestinal spasms, and the most serious ones are rolling in bed, which is very serious. If you are a patient with intestinal spasms, there may also be some abdominal bloating, which means there is a lot of bloating in the stomach, and the stomach is swollen and very uncomfortable. The most obvious symptoms of intestinal spasm are acute abdominal pain, facial flushing, diarrhea, and vomiting in patients. Therefore, parents and friends should be alert and take their children to a regular hospital for examination, diagnosis, and targeted treatment as soon as possible.
