What is the reason for sweating and hair loss

It is summer now. Even if we don’t exercise much, we may sweat profusely, especially those who like sports, who sweat profusely after exercise. Although sweating can eliminate toxins from the body, excessive sweating can also have certain harmful effects on the body. Many people find that their hair falls out more after sweating a lot. Why is this? Let me tell you.

Sweating can help excrete toxins and has certain benefits for the human body. However, when the sweat evaporates, the salt left behind will drain moisture from the hair roots, making the hair dry and brittle. When salt accumulates on the scalp or hair surface, it will hinder hair growth, making the hair particularly susceptible to various dust and impurities, clogging the pores. Not only does it make the hair look dirty, but it also increases the friction between the hair, causing it to be damaged and fall off, leading to hair loss.

Especially people who like to wear hats when exercising have a higher risk of hair loss. Because wearing a hat will hinder the breathing of sweat glands, making hair less fresh and breathable. Over time, sweat spots will form near the hairline, affecting the normal oil secretion of the scalp. The pores will also be blocked, causing the hair to lack the proper nourishment, and then cause problems such as itchy scalp, dandruff, and even cause hair loss.

It is also possible that spontaneous sweating and hair loss are caused by kidney yin deficiency, where yin cannot control yang, leading to internal disturbance of virtual fire and heat. We can consider taking the Chinese patent medicine Liuwei Dihuang Pills for treatment. At the same time, we need to eat more nourishing foods, such as animal liver, pancreas, meat, shellfish, milk, cereals, beans, potatoes, vegetables, brown sugar, and eggs. 1. Pay attention to regular diet and rest, eat less spicy food, and don’t stay up late.

There are many reasons for hair loss after sweating. If dust clogs the pores after sweating, we need to wash our hair in time after exercise to clean the dust. If it is caused by kidney deficiency, we should not only use the above methods for treatment, but also go to the hospital for detailed examination.
