Abstract

Nocturnal crying in toddlers has a broad spectrum of causes including psychosocial and somatic causes, whereby the majority is self-limiting and do not need referral to specialist medical care. Although uncommon, atypical presentations of nocturnal crying – such as spondylodiscitis – require referral to specialist medical care, especially when combined with discomfort. In this case report, we present a case of a 15-month old girl with an atypical presentation of nocturnal crying in combination with back pain.
