Question
How to treat a 9-month-old baby’s nighttime sweating issue?
Answer
Since infants have a higher water content in their skin, a rich distribution of blood vessels, active metabolism, and an underdeveloped autonomic nervous system regulation, they are prone to sweating. Additionally, checking for deficiencies in trace elements may also help resolve the sweating problem. If calcium deficiency is found, consider supplementing with cod liver oil or Betacal and expose the baby to more sunlight to promote calcium absorption. As the baby grows, these symptoms are expected to improve. Wishing the baby a healthy growth!
