Does gripe water really help to relieve baby,s colic?

Many women give gripe water for colic in babies. I used to melt asafoetida in water and apply it on my daughter's navel and it helped a great deal in not forming any gas in her stomach. So, you can try this as well for the colic, as it is not something that you have to make baby drink or eat. https://healdove.com/alternative-medicine/Indian-home-remedies-for-infant-colic-How-to-treat-infant-stomach-pain-gas-and-colic
