Patient's question:
My son is almost three years old. Now he sweats too much at night when he sleeps. The mattress pad and the blanket he uses are all soaked like water. He has to change positions several times during the night to sleep. He is usually quite healthy, but I don't know what the reason is.Doctor's answer:
The symptom of sweating like this in children is called night sweats. It may be caused by a lack of calcium. You can give your child oral calcium gluconate for children and encourage them to eat more calcium-rich foods, such as beans, dairy products, fish, beef, ribs, and so on. If there is no improvement, it is important to take the child to see a doctor in time for symptomatic treatment. Encouraging more activities for the child can help strengthen the body's own immunity.
