Sweating during deep sleep is common in infants and not always a sign of weak constitution or illness. Many parents believe their children have weak constitutions, leading to constant sweating. In fact, a significant portion of children experience physiological hyperhidrosis. This condition is more common on the head and neck and often occurs again within 30 minutes after falling asleep, usually subsiding within about an hour.Infants and young children have highly active metabolisms and are naturally lively, making it difficult for some to settle down even after getting into bed at night. Therefore, sweating on the head after falling asleep is normal. Physiological hyperhidrosis refers to sweating during deep sleep in children who are growing well, healthy, and free from any diseases.
Parents often rely on their subjective feelings to determine the optimal room temperature for their children and dislike covering them with too many blankets, preferring to keep them tightly wrapped. Due to underdeveloped nervous systems and the active growth phase, infants and young children experience intense catabolism. Combined with overheating, their bodies can only regulate normal body temperature by sweating and evaporating excess heat.
