For colic, a paste of hing in warm water rubbed around (not on) the navel eases trapped wind. Nursing mothers should chew ajwain or sip fennel water — its goodness reaches the baby through milk. A gentle clockwise tummy massage with warm mustard oil settles most evenings. See a doctor if crying comes with fever or vomiting.
