This article explains the common causes and coping strategies for excessive sweating in children.

Types of excessive sweating in children and treatment recommendations

After weaning, children may experience increased sweating, which could be related to a calcium deficiency. It is recommended to check for trace elements and supplement nutrition comprehensively.

Excessive sweating at night in children may be caused by weakness or a lack of calcium. Treatment with oral medications is recommended, such as Xuhuan Zhitong, Longmu Zhuanggu Granules, and Children’s Cod Liver Oil, to improve symptoms.

Sweating on the back but not on the head in a child with a fever might be a sign of infection or weakness of the body constitution. It’s important to first check and rule out the possibility of infection and consider traditional Chinese medicine treatment.
