What are the causes of sweaty feet?

It is very annoying that the feet always sweat, because if the sweat is discharged too much and not cleaned up, it will easily cause athlete's foot. This skin disease is relatively stubborn. There are several reasons that affect sweating of the feet. For example, spontaneous sweating is caused by physical weakness, or it may be caused by chills, so everyone must take good care of their bodies.

Spontaneous sweating

Spontaneous sweating refers to frequent sweating without any other triggering factors, which is closely related to the patient's own physical condition. Spontaneous sweating is mostly related to physical weakness such as weak lung qi and loss of body fluids, and is also related to symptoms such as fatigue, weakness, and chills. Therefore, this phenomenon often occurs in children or patients with poor health.

Night sweats

You sweat when you fall asleep and stop sweating when you wake up. Night sweats are mostly caused by Yin deficiency. Yin deficiency leads to Yang hyperactivity. Yin cannot control Yang, and body fluid turns into sweat. Therefore, it is often accompanied by symptoms such as fever in the five parts of the body, insomnia, and dry mouth and throat. It is common in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis infiltration stage.

No sweat

It refers to a critical condition, when the vital energy is weak and the Yang energy is about to be exhausted, the patient will sweat profusely, and is often accompanied by critical symptoms such as rapid breathing, cold limbs, weak pulse, and sometimes absent pulse. It is a sign that the Yang energy is about to be exhausted, and is more common in patients with heart failure and collapse.

Partial sweating

Commonly known as "half-body sweat". It can be found on the left or right side, upper or lower body. They are all caused by wind-phlegm or rheumatism blocking the meridians, or insufficient nutrition and defense, or disharmony of Qi and blood. It is more common in patients with rheumatism or hemiplegia. If an elderly person sweats profusely, it may be a precursor to a stroke.
