Question
My 5-year-old daughter often sweats while sleeping, and her clothes get soaked in sweat. I would like to inquire about the possible causes and whether treatment is needed. Have there been any previous attempts at treatment, and what were the results?
Answer
Based on past treatment experiences, a child’s nighttime sweating may be caused by a deficiency in calcium. It is recommended to check the child’s trace element levels to confirm this. In daily diet, it is advisable to enhance the child’s overall nutrition by consuming more calcium-rich foods such as milk, lean meat, and shrimp, which are beneficial for digestion and health. Additionally, calcium and vitamin D supplementation should be done simultaneously, as vitamin D aids in the absorption of calcium. Consider using calcium supplements containing vitamin D, such as Calcium Yuan tablets, to improve calcium absorption.
