A 10-month-old baby in Yunnan, China, was hospitalized in December 2026 with nearly 600 needle wounds, including a broken needle in his neck requiring surgery, after his mother allegedly used needles as punishment and a folk remedy for illness.
The child, who had fever and convulsions, improved after treatment and was moved out of intensive care.
Authorities confirmed the mother caused the injuries, citing lack of medical knowledge and emotional distress, but no criminal charges have been reported.
