Q Does night crying improve on its own without treatment?
A Some cases resolve naturally as the child grows, but persistent sleep deprivation can affect growth and development, so early treatment is recommended.
Detailed Answer
Night crying sometimes improves on its own without treatment, but if left unaddressed it can lead to sleep deprivation for both child and parents.
Korean Medicine Clinic Perspective
Mild night crying may resolve naturally as the sleep rhythm settles after 3 to 6 months of age. However, when Heart qi deficiency or Heart heat is the root cause, leaving it untreated can lead to startle-palpitation syndrome or night terrors. Sleep deprivation interferes with growth hormone secretion and lowers immunity, so if symptoms persist for more than 2 weeks, professional Korean medicine care is recommended.
