What causes baby's wet palms?

In the daily life of taking care of the baby, some mothers will notice that the baby's palms sometimes sweat easily. If it is not when the weather is hot and sweating is easy, this phenomenon is abnormal. If your baby's palms are often dry and hot, and he sweats easily, especially when sleeping at night, then it means that there are some problems with the baby's body. So what is the reason for the baby's wet palms?

1. Reason 1

It is mostly normal for babies to sweat excessively, which is medically called physiological hyperhidrosis. For example, the hot weather in summer causes children to sweat excessively; infants and young children sweat on their heads and necks when they just fall asleep, but the sweat decreases after they fall asleep; babies sweat a lot after playing, running and jumping, but are generally in good condition; in winter, babies wear too many clothes, the quilts are too thick at night, and the indoor air-conditioning temperature is too high, causing babies to overheat and sweat a lot. Some babies sweat only on the head and forehead, commonly known as "steamer head". This is also physiological sweating and parents do not need to worry.

2. Reason 2

Drug treatment is generally not recommended for physiological night sweats. Instead, appropriate measures should be taken to eliminate factors in life that cause high fever. For example, if a child exercises too much before going to bed, or eats a high-calorie meal that causes night sweating, the child's activity level and food intake before going to bed should be controlled. This will also help the child sleep and control obesity, and is beneficial to the child's physical and mental health.

3. Reason three

Some children sweat profusely at night because the room temperature is too high or the quilt is too thick. The bedroom temperature in winter should be between 24℃ and 28℃; the thickness of the quilt should be increased or decreased with the change of temperature. Generally speaking, if parents pay attention to the above-mentioned factors that may easily cause increased heat production and overcome them, the chances of night sweats will naturally decrease. Even if children occasionally have one or two severe thieves sweats, there is no need to worry too much. The main loss of body fluids and salts due to night sweats can be fully replenished through a reasonable daily diet.
