Hello,
Causes of excessive crying in an infant are colic, acute otitis media or ear infection, corneal abrasion, hair wrapped around toes and fingers, thirst or hunger, wet diaper and diaper rash, strangulated hernia, bacterial meningitis, and gastroesophageal reflux.
Feed a hungry baby, change wet diapers, and comfort a baby who is cold and crying due to any of these above factors. Soothing music accompanied with parental attention (including eye contact, talking, touching, rocking, walking, and playing) may be effective in some infants and is never harmful.
For colic, give syrup colic aid syrup and Cyclopam syrup. If the baby is not accepting feeds, doesn't stop crying, doesn't sleep, gets fever or ear pain. please do consult a pediatrician.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Hello,
Sometimes teething males children cry and throw tantrums. Excessive crying may be due to teething. We have to make sure baby doesn't show any of these symptoms like fever, diarrhea, vomiting, not accepting any feeds, excessive crying without sleeping during nights and seizures.
If your baby has any of the above mentioned symptoms, you need to see a pediatrician. Let me enumerate the causes of excessive crying in a child like colic, ear pain, diaper rash, urinary tract infection, or high fever. Cyclopam is to be given orally every 8th hourly. If your syrup contains 10 mg in 5 ml, then Cyclopam is to be given.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
