In hot seasons, everyone sweats, which is a normal physiological phenomenon. If you sweat a lot, you should be more vigilant. Some parents may notice that their children sweat a lot while sleeping, so they are very worried that this is caused by illness. So, what causes children to sweat more while sleeping?
There are many reasons that can cause children to sweat more while sleeping, such as some parents worrying about their children catching a cold while sleeping, so they will cover their children with thick blankets. This will make the baby feel hot during sleep, leading to excessive sweating during sleep. For this situation, as long as the bedding is appropriately reduced, the symptoms can be effectively improved.
Excessive sweating during sleep in children may also be caused by a lack of trace elements, such as calcium deficiency. Calcium is an important element in the human body, especially for children who require a lot of calcium for growth and development. When children suffer from calcium deficiency, they may sweat excessively while sleeping. If the calcium deficiency is severe, it may also be accompanied by rickets and osteoporosis.
Children have a strong metabolism, so they sweat more easily than adults. If parents notice that their children sweat a lot while sleeping, they should first find the cause. If there are not many blankets and the indoor temperature is appropriate, it is necessary to take the child to the hospital for trace element testing to see if there is a calcium deficiency problem.
