What causes excessive sweating around the waist?

Sweating in the waist area, especially a lot, is an abnormal phenomenon. It may also be caused by physical weakness or yin deficiency. People with yin deficiency will show symptoms of excessive sweating, bitter taste in the mouth, yellow urine, or insomnia and nightmares.

1. In traditional Chinese medicine, there is also a distinction between "dynamic sweat" and "static sweat". Sweating caused by weather and environmental reasons is static sweat, which is equivalent to passive sweating. Many abnormal static sweats require attention, such as spontaneous sweating and night sweats. Some people sweat on their front and back when they are not hot or exercising, and are prone to fatigue, colds, and palpitations. They are especially afraid of wind and cold. This is called spontaneous sweating, which is a manifestation of qi deficiency. Sweating as soon as you fall asleep at night is called night sweats, which is a manifestation of yin deficiency. Different sweating locations can reflect a person's physical condition. Excessive sweating on the forehead and face is a sign of stagnation and internal heat, which can cause irritability, bitter taste in the mouth, and yellow urine. Sweating on the front and back of the heart is a sign of weak heart qi, which can cause palpitations, insomnia, dreaminess, and forgetfulness. In addition, there are some ways of sweating that are signs of disease. For example, some elderly people sweat on half of their body and not on the other half. At this time, you must be careful about stroke.

2. Night sweats may be caused by qi deficiency, which is generally caused by poor vascular dilation function. Buzhong Yiqi Decoction can be used to adjust. For night sweats caused by insufficient heart blood, it is recommended to first check whether there is a possibility of tuberculosis infection, whether it is caused by physical weakness, and the possibility of autonomic nervous system disorder. Chinese medicine has a good therapeutic effect in this regard, and you can seek oral Chinese medicine treatment from a Chinese medicine practitioner.
