Question
What causes a child to sweat all over at night?
Answer
Night sweats in children can be caused by calcium deficiency, which often leads to symptoms such as irritability, excessive sweating, loss of appetite, and weight loss. To treat this condition, it is recommended to ensure adequate rest, consume easily digestible, light, warm foods, and eat more calcium-rich foods like eggs and pork liver. It is suggested that children take calcium gluconate oral solution for calcium supplementation, and at the same time, they should spend more time in the sunlight.
