The cause of neonatal colic may be caused by abnormal gastrointestinal motility, intestinal dysbiosis, or lactose intolerance.

1.Gastrointestinal motility is abnormal: At present, the regulatory function of the enteric nervous system of newborns has not been fully developed, so it may lead to enhanced intestinal fluid transport and rolling, which will cause intestinal colic.

2.Intestinal dysbiosis: It is also possible to cause this phenomenon if there is an imbalance in the intestinal flora of the newborn. Some newborns may also have diarrhea and constipation alternating with each other.

3.Lactose intolerance: When lactose enters the colon, lactobacilli and bifidobacteria ferment, a large amount of lactic acid and hydrogen will be produced, so that the colon will expand rapidly, causing pain.

Sudden screaming, violent crying, vomiting, and bloating.

Extended information] 1. Colic syndrome, also known as abdominal colic syndrome, refers to the syndrome of postprandial epigastric or mid-abdominal pain caused by relative ischemia of the intestines. It is also known as visceral colic, intestinal colic, intermittent ischemic peristalsis disorder, abdominal intermittent claudication, ischemic abdominal syndrome, chronic visceral ischemia syndrome, mesenteric artery intermittent ischemia, and abdominal vascular insufficiency syndrome. It is more common in middle- and older men with other manifestations of arteriosclerosis.

Abdominal cramps usually appear 15 to 30 minutes after a meal and last for 1 to 3 hours, and the duration and intensity of pain depend on the amount of food eaten.

2. **Symptoms: Due to arteriosclerosis and arteritis, the opening of the gastrointestinal branch of the abdominal aorta causes narrowing or blockage. Affected arteries mostly occur in the superior mesenteric artery.

After the patient eats, the intestinal blood flow and demand increase, resulting in relative ischemia and hypoxia of the intestines, intestinal spasm, and obvious abdominal cramps.

3. Clinical manifestations.

1.It is more common in middle- and older men with other manifestations of arteriosclerosis.

2.Abdominal cramps usually appear 15 to 30 minutes after a meal and last for 1 to 3 hours, and the duration and intensity of pain depend on the amount of food eaten. Abdominal colic may be a precursor to intestinal vascular infarction.

5.Anemia, leukocytosis, and fecal occult blood positivity may be present.

4. Diagnostic methods.

1.Has a clinical manifestation of colic syndrome.

2.Abdominal x-ray showed no abnormal findings.

The above is diagnostic.

4.Doppler B-mode ultrasonography of the abdomen is helpful.

Angiography, MRI angiography.

5. Method: Generally, it includes eating small and frequent meals, eating a low-fat and low-protein diet, controlling blood pressure, blood sugar, blood lipids, and preventing atherosclerosis. Surgery** is mainly for celiac artery or mesenteric artery reconstruction.

Dilation or recanalization of the stenosis or occlusion may also be performed through an arterial catheter balloon, or stenting. Medications** may be vasodilators or anticoagulation**, antithrombotic pills, or low-dose aspirin.

Neonatal colic is more serious, so what are the symptoms of neonatal colic?

Neonatal colic may present with symptoms such as constant crying and bulging abdomen, difficulty falling asleep, and continuous gas. If a newborn cries at a fixed time of the day, the crying is very loud and cannot be relieved by soothing the symptoms, this may be neonatal colic. If the newborn's abdomen is bulging, it is because the baby's digestive system is not perfect, and after feeding, it is not absorbed in time, and intestinal colic occurs.

When the newborn has intestinal colic, there are some movements when crying, there will be shaking the head, the whole body arches, and the breathing is slightly short, at this time, if the parents touch the child's abdomen with their hands, there will be a feeling of swelling, the two legs of the infant will be straight or bent, and the limbs will even be cold.
