Question

Recently, my child has been sweating more at night, which has made me concerned. I wonder if this is normal and if there are any ways to improve it.

Answer

Sweating at night in a four-year-old could be due to Yang deficiency with spontaneous sweating, where the body’s defense mechanism is not solid, and sweating continues. It is recommended to use a large dose of ginseng to strengthen the body’s defense mechanism and stop sweating. Additionally, consuming pearl barley can enhance the effectiveness of stopping sweating. Furthermore, there are many factors that can induce pediatric endocrine diseases. If the child is diagnosed with such a disease, parents should cooperate with the doctor for immediate treatment, including gastrointestinal decompression and forming good hygiene habits. Children should have a balanced diet and avoid cold stimulating foods.
