Patient's question:
Recently, I don't know what's going on. Every time I take a nap in the afternoon, my body constantly sweats profusely, and I feel like my whole body is burning up, which makes me feel very uncomfortable. I'm asking here, is it possible that frequent profuse sweating and body dryness are symptoms of kidney deficiency?Doctor's answer:
Symptoms of frequent sweating, it is still considered as kidney yin deficiency. It is best to consult a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner to confirm whether the sweating is caused by kidney yin deficiency. Most cases of kidney yin deficiency are characterized by severe thirst. If sweating occurs during the day, it is generally considered a sign of physical weakness, and it cannot be ruled out that it may be due to autonomic nervous system dysfunction. It is recommended to take oral medications to regulate the autonomic nervous system, such as gamma-oryzanol, and can also take Liu Wei Di Huang Wan at the same time.
