Patient's question:
My child is seven years old this year. As soon as they move, they start sweating, and the sweat runs down their face. Even when they just fall asleep at night, they sweat and soak their pillow. Their appetite and energy levels are normal. Could this be a medical condition?Doctor's answer:
It is necessary to accurately diagnose the related diseases of pediatric hyperhidrosis. Identify the root cause to effectively treat pediatric hyperhidrosis. Pediatric hyperhidrosis can be divided into two major categories: physiological hyperhidrosis and pathological hyperhidrosis. Physiological hyperhidrosis often has obvious causes, such as wearing too many clothes or intense exercise. After excluding the causes of hyperhidrosis, the symptom of hyperhidrosis disappears. Children with this type generally have good health and no other diseases discovered. The causes of pathological hyperhidrosis in children are relatively complex. It is a symptom resulting from the combined effect of multiple diseases.
