Doctors For Colic In Pakpattan

Colic meaning in Urdu is "نوزائیدہ بچے کا درد". It is the medical name for episodes of long, intense crying in an otherwise healthy infant, without any clear reason. Doctors define colic by the rule of three: crying for 3 or more hours a day, 3 or more days a week, for 3 or more weeks.

Colic affects about 1 in 5 babies. It usually starts in the first few weeks of life, peaks around 6 weeks of age, and goes away on its own by 3 to 4 months. The crying does not mean the baby is sick, in pain from a known cause, or that the parents are doing something wrong. However, colic puts a lot of stress on parents, and they need understanding, rest, and support to cope.
