Gas Vs Colic

What is the difference between Gas and colic in baby? And how do i determine it, what are the symptoms and what are the ways to overcome or relieve it ? From what i read gassy is when the baby’s stomach is bloated and hard. Does using those essnetial oil (inara organicz, bymommadee etc) rubs works for gas and colic? #FTM

My PD mentioned those oil rubs don’t actually get rid of the gas, but it only provided warming sensation which then distract babies from the discomfort caused by gas. For my case, baby’s stomach was bloated and hard as you mentioned. Also baby was extremely fussy and cry a lot, when she cries her body is stiff and face very red. Was prescribed colic drop (Ridwind) by PD, didn’t help much but eventually my baby seem to outgrow it by 2+ months old.
