Patient's question:
The child has been crying non-stop recently and hasn't been eating much. Also, the baby, who is five months old, often sweats cold hands and feet. What should be done?Doctor's answer:
Check the baby for trace elements. Calcium deficiency in babies can also cause excessive sweating. If there is a deficiency, it is important to supplement calcium for the baby. While supplementing calcium, it is necessary to combine it with fish oil or sun exposure to promote calcium absorption. Regular follow-up checks should also be conducted.For external use, it is recommended not to use Jin Dou. If the baby accidentally gets it into their mouth, it could be harmful. Nowadays, these products are not safe. Last year, it was reported that talcum powder containing talc was harmful to babies.
