​What is the reason for sweating of knee joints

Many friends will experience night sweats unknowingly at night, which often indicates poor physical condition. If your knee joints sweat, it is most likely caused by physical weakness, but the possibility of certain diseases cannot be ruled out. So in traditional Chinese medicine, what exactly is sweating of the knee joints and how do we explain other cases of night sweats? Let’s take a look.

From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, night sweats may be caused by qi deficiency or yin deficiency. If the night sweats are caused by qi deficiency, it is generally due to poor vasodilator function, which can be adjusted with Buzhong Yiqi Decoction. Night sweats caused by insufficient blood in the heart, palpitations and insomnia should be treated with blood nourishing and heart nourishing, and Guipi Decoction should be used for treatment. If it is caused by yin deficiency, the body will have dryness and heat, and there will also be night sweats. At this time, Liuwei Dihuang Pills can be used to improve it. Night sweats caused by yin deficiency and hyperactivity of fire, and fever in the five hearts, should be treated with nourishing yin and reducing fire, and Danggui Liuhuang Decoction can be used. However, it is still recommended to be diagnosed by a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner before taking medicine to improve the condition.

There are two types of night sweats: one is physiological and the other is pathological. Modern medicine believes that children have a high metabolism, are active and lively, and tend to sweat more than adults, which is a physiological phenomenon. The name of the syndrome comes from "Golden Chamber Synopsis. Blood Stasis, Deficiency and Fatigue Disease Pulse Symptoms and Treatments", and is also known as night sweats. It refers to sweating after falling asleep and stopping after waking up. Most of them are symptoms of deficiency and fatigue, especially those with yin deficiency. For details, please see the sections on night sweats due to asthenia and night sweats due to yin deficiency. Traditional Chinese medicine says that "Yin deficiency causes night sweats" and "Yang deficiency causes spontaneous sweating."

Sweating during sleep is called "night sweats". Night sweats is a disease name in traditional Chinese medicine. It is a symptom characterized by abnormal sweating after falling asleep and stopping sweating after waking up. In "Golden Chamber Synopsis·Water Qi Chapter", it is stated that "if one sweats after eating and also often sweats at night, this is due to fatigue." "Jingyue Complete Works·Sweat Syndrome" points out: "Spontaneous sweating and night sweats also have their own yin and yang symptoms. It cannot be said that spontaneous sweating must be due to yang deficiency, and night sweats must be due to yin deficiency." In addition, Zhang Jingyue also wrote in "Jingyue Complete Works·Sweat Syndrome" that "spontaneous sweating and night sweats also have their own yin and yang symptoms. It cannot be said that spontaneous sweating must be due to yang deficiency, and night sweats must be due to yin deficiency." And clinically there are yin and yang deficiency due to yin deficiency causing yin damage and yang, blood stasis and water retention due to blood stasis, etc., which require more detailed examination when making syndrome differentiation, so it is further subdivided into: yin deficiency night sweats, yang deficiency night sweats, qi deficiency night sweats, blood stasis night sweats, blood deficiency night sweats, dampness obstruction night sweats, and exogenous night sweats.

You can choose Chinese patent medicines such as Erzhi Pills, Zhibai Dihuang Pills, Liuwei Dihuang Pills, etc.

Night sweats are a symptom in which a person sweats unconsciously after falling asleep, which stops upon waking up and causes a feeling of heat and irritability after the sweating stops. It is mostly caused by internal heat due to yin deficiency, which forces sweat to escape.
