Spleen deficiency can lead to excessive sweating of the head, and generally, if it is mild, there will be no sweating. However, when the condition is severe, it can lead to physical weakness, which in turn causes excessive head sweating. For patients with spleen deficiency, it is also crucial to manage the condition early. Firstly, one can eat more foods that strengthen the spleen, such as Chinese yam and coix seeds, which have spleen-strengthening effects and can be effectively managed. Most importantly, one should avoid excessive fatigue, not rush, maintain a cheerful mood, and ensure good daily routines to achieve good management.

Excessive sweating is commonly seen in which diseases?

In cases of excessive sweating, it is often seen in individuals with kidney deficiency, physical weakness, or excessive dampness. It may also be due to malnutrition, such as calcium deficiency or lack of trace elements, which can all lead to this symptom. Therefore, it is advisable to manage your diet by including eggs, lean meat, shrimp, as well as fruits like apples, bananas, and grapefruits. These foods help increase the body's calcium and contain trace elements, which can lead to significant improvements. Additionally, ensure adequate sleep, avoid overworking, and do not stay up late.

What is the condition of having a fever and sweating excessively?

Typically, fever and excessive sweating in the body often result from the presence of some infectious factors, commonly involving respiratory infections or post-surgical infections. It is also possible for some immune system disorders to cause these symptoms. Therefore, patients usually experience fever and excessive sweating in such cases. Once the cause is identified and appropriate symptomatic treatment is provided, the symptoms of fever and excessive sweating will improve when the inflammatory condition is controlled. Additionally, many non-infectious factors can cause fever, especially in women during their menstrual period or after intense exercise, which can lead to an increase in the body's heat production, resulting in feelings of heat and profuse sweating.

Is excessive sweating due to qi deficiency?

In clinical practice, it is common to see that qi deficiency often leads to excessive sweating, but does excessive sweating always indicate qi deficiency? Not necessarily. There are three reasons for excessive sweating: The first reason is qi deficiency, the second reason is damp-heat, and the third reason is yin deficiency. As you can see, excessive sweating is not always due to qi deficiency; it can also be due to yin deficiency or damp-heat. There is also a condition of excessive sweating due to congenitally active sweat glands, which is not caused by qi deficiency but is instead a hereditary factor. Therefore, excessive sweating is not necessarily always due to qi deficiency.

What is excessive sweating and night sweats?

The causes of excessive sweating and night sweats are often considered to be due to a relatively weak constitution or frequent staying up late. Other possible reasons might include frequent sexual activities, which can also lead to excessive sweating and night sweats. Therefore, it is initially necessary to use Chinese medicine for conditioning, which can bring about significant improvement. Mainly, medicines that boost qi and nourish yin, such as ginseng and longan, are used. These can effectively replenish yang and qi and provide effective conditioning.
