Question
A 5-and-a-half-year-old boy has been experiencing excessive sweating on his head and back during sleep since childhood. What could be the reason for this?
Answer
It is common for 5-year-old children to sweat excessively during sleep. For children under 3 years old, this may be due to a lack of calcium; for children over 3 years old, the cause of sweating is unclear and usually does not affect their health. It is recommended to use 30 grams of floating wheat to boil water for drinking, and to continue this for 15 days. This has been found to be very effective for many children with similar symptoms. Best wishes!
