Thanks a lot doctor for your prompt response, quite helpful..further to this i also wanted to know ki can colic pain be accompanied with fever? he gets fever of 99.5 when he is pain, i initially gave him calpol, later doc prescribed him colicaid but then he wanted colicaid every 3 hrs so then i shifted it to neopeptin, which he needs every 6 hrs. n yes he does cry with very high pitch with no proper known reason (we guessed that he goes cranky with the rising temp of 99.5). when does this colic pain go away completely? with neopeptin he gets much relieve n yes cycling n burping is being done regularly. he had got rashes all over his body probably due to heat of the oil massage so currently no oil massage for him (also they say ki no oil nassage to bebgiven when fever is there) but i try giving him massage with little of johnson baby cream n then apply johnson baby powder to dry away..the rashes went off with calamine cream prescribed by the doc here however have left white patchy marks all over..
