Hello!

“Hi there, firstly i would like to thank u for creating such an informative page that all moms will find very useful. I have a qu to ask and would appreciate if you post it on your page ( as anon pls) my 3 yr old son has excessive sweating on his head. Summer/ winter has no impact hes constantly sweating on his head. Over the past week the sweating has been so extreme that his pillow gets soaked whilst sleeping. He hasnt been ill with the flu or anything like that. Should i be worried or is it common??” Any advice for a 3 yr old sweating?

  • A quick visit to GP or child health nurse and they can reassure you if there is a problem.


  • I hope you were able to find a solution.


  • I would see a doctor and if it’s just excessive sweat glands (hyperhydrosis), then it becomes more of a how to deal with it issue, rather than something to worry about.


  • It was interesting reading the comments to this!


  • I have seen that botox works small needles into the hands but as your son is so young they probably wont do anything


  • Did this issue get resolved?


  • Hope you managed to find the answer you were looking for.


  • How are they going now?


  • Talk with your doctor if your worried


  • Check with your community health clinic and ask them


  • I would also seek advice from a medical doctor.
