Question

A 9-year-old boy loves to sweat and his sweat has a strong odor, but it’s not caused by body odor. He also tends to get heat rashes quite often, but everything else about him is normal.

Answer

Children with weak immunity and delicate skin are prone to heat rashes. Keeping the skin dry is an effective way to prevent them. Itching can be relieved by applying calamine lotion. There are many triggers for pediatric endocrine diseases, so if a child is diagnosed with pediatric endocrine disease, parents need to cooperate with the doctor for active treatment, including gastrointestinal decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. Children should have a balanced diet and avoid irritating and cold foods.
