My child sweats excessively while sleeping (night sweats).

Children who have abundant internal heat expel it through sweat during sleep. However, if the pillow becomes thoroughly drenched, it indicates Yin deficiency (a deficiency of body fluids), requiring treatment to cool the heat and replenish body fluids.

도둑처럼 몰래 흘리는 땀이라 하여 도한(盜汗)이라 합니다.

  • 정상: 아이들은 어른보다 체온이 높고 땀이 많습니다. 잠들고 1~2시간 내에 나는 땀은 정상입니다.
  • 문제: 밤새 흘리거나, 땀 식은 후 감기에 잘 걸린다면 치료 대상입니다.
  • 보양: 황기, 자음강화탕 등으로 땀샘을 조절해줍니다.
💡 실내 온도

시원하게 재우는 것이 좋습니다. 이불을 걷어차는 것은 덥다는 신호입니다.
