Infancy is characterized by a highly active metabolism, and children are generally lively and energetic. Some may remain restless even after getting into bed at night, so sweating from the head can occur even after falling asleep. The term "physiological sweating" refers to sweating during deep sleep in children who are growing well, healthy, and free from any diseases. Parents often rely on their subjective feelings to choose the optimal room temperature for their children and dislike covering them with too many blankets, preferring to keep them tightly wrapped. Due to the underdeveloped nervous system and the active growth and development phase, the body's catabolic metabolism is particularly. Combined with overheating, the only way to regulate normal body temperature is through sweating, which helps to evaporate excess heat.Additionally, drinking milk, malt extract, or eating chocolate before sleep can also cause sweating. Some parents give their children milk or malt extract before bed, and after falling asleep, the body produces a significant amount of heat, which is primarily dissipated through sweating. Another reason for sweating during deep sleep is excessively high room temperature or over-warming. These are all forms of physiological sweating and do not require medical intervention.
