Patient's question:
Mainly, I feel like she sweats a lot when taking a nap. The temperature where we are at night is about 20 degrees Celsius. She wears a T-shirt and six-inch shorts to sleep during the day. Sometimes she doesn't cover up with a blanket, and other times she just uses a small blanket over her stomach. Then, during her nap, I notice a lot of sweat on the back of her head and on her back. It feels like it's sweat from weakness, but when I taste it, it seems salty. But isn't it said that if sweat is salty, it's not sweat from weakness?What kind of assistance is needed: Is she sweating from weakness? Should I focus on dietary supplements? Mainly, the child is afraid to let her eat too stimulating food.
Doctor's answer:
When a child reappears in excessive sweating after falling asleep, it is a physiological phenomenon. If parents carefully observe and find that excessive sweating reappears after a period of time after falling asleep and stops in the morning, it indicates restlessness and a lack of sweat, which should be appropriately improved by enhancing the child's physical condition.Advice: Avoid spicy and salty foods, and maintain a light diet. It is recommended to have a trace element check at the hospital, as a lack of calcium in the child can also lead to excessive sweating. We hope the baby recovers soon.
