Question
How can I treat my 9-month-old baby who often sweats a lot while sleeping at night?
Answer
Due to the higher moisture content in a baby’s skin, abundant capillaries, vigorous metabolism, and an underdeveloped autonomic nervous system regulation, they tend to sweat easily. You can have the baby checked for trace elements; iron deficiency can also cause excessive sweating. If there is a calcium deficiency, you can give them cod liver oil or supplement with calcium, increase sun exposure to promote calcium absorption, and the condition will gradually improve. Wishing the baby a healthy growth.
