(prHWY.com) January 16, 2013 - Westminster, CO -- Westminster, Colorado (December 10, 2012) - Indian Crest Pediatrics, a state of the art
center for pediatrics in Westminster, is sharing proven effective tips on how best to take care of colicky babies. Although colic may not pose a serious risk to the infant's health, pediatricians understand that this common condition can be stressful to parents during the child rearing years. Hence, they feature helpful tips about colic and its remedies on their website.
Contrary to common notion, colic isn't a disease so it cannot cause any harm to an infant. The term colic primarily pertains to the uncontrollable crying in an otherwise healthy baby. Infants ages 5 months and below are most prone to colic, the period of time when they tend to cry for more than three hours in a row on three or more days a week for at least three weeks. This can also be accompanied by stiffening of the legs and passing of gas.
The causes of colic have never been clinically proven even by specialists, but colicky babies share the same body system so a number of assumptions were drawn. Infants may have colic because of too much screaming while crying that results to air swallowing and painful gas. The possibilities of tummy troubles caused by immaturity of the intestinal tract and hypersensitivity to a protein in infant formula are also counted as colic factors.
To ensure that every patient receives premium healthcare service, the physicians at Indian Crest accept emergency sick child visits and offer after hour's medical assistance. They also encourage parents to keep their children's regular child checkups to help ensure the child's wellbeing and proper development as they age.
