Question

Parents notice that their baby frequently sweats even when dressed lightly and wakes up multiple times at night. They suspect a calcium deficiency and inquire about the need for a trace element check.

Answer

Based on the baby’s discomfort symptoms, it is first considered that excessive sweating and frequent crying may be due to calcium deficiency. It is recommended to undergo a trace element test for a definitive diagnosis. If diagnosed with calcium deficiency, actively supplementing calcium supplements is advisable, and oral Longmu Bone Granules and infant cod liver oil can be considered for treatment. These medications not only supplement calcium but also contain traditional Chinese medicine ingredients that can effectively stop sweating and improve the baby’s condition of excessive sweating.
