Doctor's answer:
Childhood hyperhidrosis can be divided into two major categories: physiological hyperhidrosis and pathological hyperhidrosis. Physiological hyperhidrosis is often caused by identifiable factors, such as wearing too many clothes, intense physical activity, or consuming spicy and stimulating foods. Once the cause of hyperhidrosis is eliminated, the condition disappears. Moreover, these children are generally in good health and show no signs of other diseases. It is also advisable to check with a doctor if they may be calcium-deficient. Additionally, carry an extra small towel and frequently wipe their sweat to prevent fever.
