What reason is 8 years old child sleep sweating much

First: normal children, even if sweating too much, parents do not have to be nervous: because children's sweat glands are more developed. The secretion of sweat glands is controlled by the autonomic nerve (vagus nerve). After a child falls asleep, the vagus nerve is excited and causes sweating. Generally, sweating occurs on the head and face, but it will be relieved within one or two hours after sleeping. At this time, you can use dry towel to wipe sweat in time; often change underwear to prevent cold due to excessive sweating; usually let children frequently take a bath, bedding or sleeping bag often bask in the sun, keep dry, and sterilize at the same time.

Second: in infancy, due to the vigorous metabolism and children's active, some children are restless even after going to bed at night, so their heads can sweat after falling asleep. The so-called physiological hyperhidrosis, refers to the child's good development, good health, no disease caused by sleep sweating. Parents are often used to their own subjective feelings to determine the best ambient temperature of children, like to cover the baby more, cover tightly. Because the development of children's brain nervous system is not perfect, but also in the period of growth and development, the metabolism of the body is very strong, coupled with the stimulation of overheating, only through sweating, to evaporate the body heat, to regulate the normal temperature. In addition, children drink milk, malt cream or eat chocolate before going to sleep can also cause sweating. Some parents give their children milk and malt milk before they fall asleep. After their children fall asleep, the body produces a lot of heat, mainly through skin sweating to dissipate heat. In addition, too high room temperature, or excessive warmth is also the cause of sweating in children's sleep, these are physiological sweating.

Third: pathological sweating is in children's quiet state, such as rickets sweating, performance for the first half of the night after sleep, children's head obvious sweating. Because the pillow is stimulated by sweat, the baby often shakes his head and rubs the pillow when sleeping. As a result, the occipital hair is sparse and falls off, forming a typical occipital ring alopecia, which is called "pillow baldness" in medicine. It is an early manifestation of infantile rickets. As long as vitamin D and calcium are supplemented in time, rickets can be controlled, and sweating will stop itself.
