Patient's question:
My child is 4 years old this year. The other day, I noticed that the clothes on his neck had turned green. At the time, I thought it might have been caused by some kind of paint. But this morning, after waking up from his nap, I found that the clothes were still green. I suspect it might be green sweat.Past treatment history and effectiveness: No treatment has been administered.
What kind of help is needed: Phone or text message, to inform you of the cause and treatment plan.
Doctor's answer:
Dear Inquirer,If the child is sweating green, it may be due to staining caused by certain medications or foods. It could be related to the pigments in the food consumed during bowel movements. Please pay attention to the following: Are there any colored snacks the child has eaten? Have they consumed any food or drinks with pigments? Have they taken any medications? (Chromhidrosis) Generally, the condition will gradually disappear after stopping the medication or avoiding certain foods. Please pay attention to frequent bathing to increase the reaction between microorganisms and sweat.
