Question
My child sweats a lot every night, and I’ve wiped them down countless times. It always seems like the sweat doesn’t dry. It’s especially noticeable on the head, and the back of the neck and shoulders sweat the most while sleeping, even more so when playing. I’m wondering if other children also sweat this much?
Answer
If you notice your baby sweating excessively, it’s important to first determine the cause. However, if it’s just a normal physiological response, there’s no need to worry excessively. Just ensure that your child is comfortable with their temperature. In summer, keep windows open and wipe away sweat promptly to prevent catching a cold. If sweating is abnormal, it’s recommended to visit a hospital for a detailed check-up to identify the cause and receive appropriate treatment. These are suggestions for the question “How do you treat excessive sweating in children?” I hope they are helpful to you, and wish you and your family good health!
