Brief Answer:
Could be infection

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for writing to us.
I understand from your history that your daughter is 1 year 3 month old
At this age colic pain is not common. There could be various reasons for crying like stomach infection, urinary infection, gastritis, etc.
It is difficult to pinpoint the cause without clinical examination at this age
My tips
1. Get the child examined by your pediatrician . Discuss with him about the possibilities I mentioned. He may advise some basic tests of urine ,stool if required. Ultrasound scan may be needed if your doctor feels necessary.
2. Give plenty of liquids to drink.
3. Just giving colimax may not cure the actual cause of pain, avoid continuing it.
Regards
Dr Arun
