In the hospital patients, there are a lot of parents to consult the doctor, for the baby sweating and worry about, they proposed that the little baby in the sleep sweating because of a lack of calcium, or because of physical weakness caused by? In fact, sweating during sleep is a common symptom, and a small amount of sweating is not always a symptom of weakness or illness. Many parents believe that their children are weak and therefore sweat constantly. This is because some children have physiologic excessive sweating. Physiological sweating is seen in the head and neck, often occurring within half an hour after going to sleep, an hour or so will no longer sweat, if you wear too many clothes to bed or cover too thick quilt will also appear this situation. As infants and young children due to the metabolism, coupled with the lively and active children, some even after going to bed at night can not quickly fall asleep, keep tossing the same can also appear to increase sweating, mainly in the head sweating after going to sleep. The so-called physiological hyperhidrosis, refers to the child’s good development, physical health, without any disease caused by sweating in sleep. Parents are often accustomed to their own subjective feeling to determine the best environmental temperature of the child, like to give the baby more covers, covered tightly. Children because the development of the brain nervous system is not yet perfect, but also in the period of growth and development, the body’s metabolism is very vigorous, coupled with the stimulation of overheating, only through sweating, in order to evaporate the body’s heat, to regulate the normal body temperature. In addition, some families like to drink milk or eat chocolate and so on in the child before going to sleep will also cause sweating. Because in the child before going to sleep to drink milk, etc., the body of the child after going to sleep a lot of heat, mainly through the skin sweating to dissipate heat. In addition, the room temperature is too high, or keep warm too much is also the cause of sweating during sleep, these are physiological sweating. Pathological sweating is in the quiet state of the child, such as rickets sweating, manifested in the first half of the night after going to sleep, the child’s head sweating significantly. Due to the occipital stimulation by sweat, infants often shake their heads and pillow friction during sleep, resulting in occipital hair thinning, loss, the formation of typical occipital ring hair loss, medically referred to as “occipital baldness”, is the early manifestation of infantile rickets, as long as the timely supplementation of vitamin D and calcium, rickets can be controlled, and the sweating will also be stopped. The sweating will stop on its own. If the child is not only the first half of the night sweating, the second half of the night and before dawn also sweating, most of the manifestations of pathological sweating, the most common is tuberculosis. There are other manifestations of tuberculosis, such as low-grade fever, fatigue, loss of appetite, and flushing of the cheeks. Children with tuberculosis are prone to sweating during daytime activities called profuse sweating, and sweating at night is called night sweating. If you suspect that your child is infected with tuberculosis, you should have a lung X-ray or do a tuberculin test for prompt diagnosis and treatment. Weak children often sweat in patches on the head, chest and back during daytime activities or at night after falling asleep. It is often caused by malnutrition due to improper feeding or poor digestion and absorption. Nursing care should pay attention to adjusting feeding methods, promoting pediatric appetite, and increasing the intake of protein, fat and sugar.
