HiSir madam, I have a 9 year old boy who always sweats a lot while doing any small work or playing something. What could be the reason for this? What can we do for him?

While sweating is a good phenomenon as it releases toxins from your body and allows your skin to breathe, excessive sweating could be an indicator of Pitta imbalance.

You can verify the same by visiting an Ayurveda practitioner, Kavita.

It could also be triggered by stress or anxiety, therefore regular exercises and pranayams like Anulom Vilom are advisable.

As far as your diet is concerned, avoid excessive fatty foods and consume a balanced diet with more fresh fruits and vegetables than fried and spicy meals.

Another good remedy is chandan lep (sandalwood paste) that you can make at home using the chandan stick.

Apply it on your forehead to balance the pitta element and bring calmness to the mind.
