Patient's question:
Hello expert!My child is two months old. Every time she wakes up from sleep and slightly moves her back of the head, she sweats a lot. Sometimes she even wets her own blanket. There is also sweating on her forehead, but it is not as much as on the back of her head. What could be the reason? First follow-up question: There is no (hair loss on the back of the head), but there are some red spots on the back of her head. Also, when she sleeps, she often twists her back of the head around as if something is behind it.
Doctor's answer:
From the theory of Traditional Chinese Medicine, children are considered to have a highly yang constitution, where yang is often in excess and yin is often deficient, which is why they frequently experience night sweats. This condition is not pathological. Generally, it does not require treatment.If the child is suffering from neonatal diseases, the mother must take the child to a doctor immediately for treatment to avoid various misconceptions. It is important to provide timely symptomatic treatment. For parents, it is essential to closely monitor the child's condition and do their best to help the child receive timely medical care.
