Patient's question:
The baby has been sweating a lot from the back of the head after every feeding, making it wet, but there's no sweat on the body, and hands and feet don't sweat either. Even with the fan or air conditioner on, it's the same. I don't know what's going on—is it because of the hot weather? My mother-in-law says it's because I dress the baby too warmly, but I don't think that's the case.What kind of help I need: The baby sweats a lot from the back of the head every time they drink milk—is that normal?
Doctor's answer:
If the baby sweats a lot only when breastfeeding, it's nothing to worry about. This is very normal. My baby also sweats a lot while breastfeeding. Breastfeeding requires a lot of effort from the baby. However, if the baby sweats profusely even in a cool environment, then it may be worth considering whether there is a calcium deficiency.The above advice is for the question "Is it normal for a lot of sweat to come out from the back of the head?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
