A. Hello dear parent! It is a normal finding in small babies. Try applying cold compress on the paining area. If required you can give paracetamol drops. If the problem is persistent then consult your child’s doctor for evaluation and advice. Continue feeding your baby well on demand. Good luck and take care.
