Infantile colic generally occurs in children within the first few days to three months after birth and is more commonly observed at night. When a child experiences colic, you can apply a warm compress to their abdomen, focusing around the navel, and massage clockwise for ten minutes at a time, three times a day. Additionally, you can also try massaging the child or using the "airplane hold". If the child cries intensely and the abdominal massage is not effective, it is crucial to bring the child to the hospital promptly for an abdominal X-ray. For prevention, ensure to burp the child ten minutes after feeding and regularly massage the abdomen between feeds.
