Chinese medicine believes that sweating syndrome is non-physiological sweating caused by disharmony between camp and health and leakage of body fluid. Sweating from time to time, sweating without fever is spontaneous sweating; Sweating at night is night sweats when you wake up. The causes of hyperhidrosis are complicated, including internal injuries, deficiency of qi or yin, and disharmony between camp and health.
Chinese medicine adopts different methods to treat hyperhidrosis according to etiology and pathology, such as harmonizing ying and Wei, invigorating qi and consolidating exterior, nourishing yin and reducing fire, restoring yang and astringing yin, etc. Chinese medicine says that "sweat is the heart fluid" and "sweat is the essence", and hyperhidrosis syndrome should be treated in time. Commonly used antiperspirant and astringent Chinese medicines are: Herba Ephedrae, Os Draconis, Oyster, Float Wheat, etc.
Antiperspirant treatment prescription are:
20g of raw astragalus root, 0g of jujube10g and 30g of floating wheat are decocted in water to treat qi deficiency and hyperhidrosis.
Night sweats due to yin deficiency, take Schisandra chinensis10g, jujube10g and peach kernel 20g, and decoct in water.
Schisandra chinensis 10g, gallnut 10g, and borneol 2g, which are placed on the umbilical fossa and covered with gauze, have certain curative effect on night sweats.
Ginseng, Radix Codonopsis, Radix Adenophorae, Radix Astragali, etc. Stewed cavity bone or hen pigeon is effective for qi deficiency and hyperhidrosis.
Black beans 100g, first soak for half a day, simmer, add appropriate amount of dark plum, dried peach and white sugar to taste, then eat beans and drink soup.
After sweating, especially after sweating, it is easy to be attacked by external evils and catch a cold. Dry your sweat in time, change clothes and quilts to avoid catching cold. Sweaty people should eat more protein in time, and add meat, eggs and milk in time. Irritating things such as pepper, green onion, pepper, cinnamon and ginger in the seasoning will sweat more and should not be used more.
Human sweat glands are the most developed, and human sweating can be divided into two types: (1) thermal sweating, which is caused by the increase of external temperature. Generally speaking, all skin will sweat except palms and toes. Regulate body temperature by sweating and dissipating heat. Sitting and working in summer, sweating about 300 grams a day; It can be increased by 10 times during manual labor; (2) Mental sweating is caused by mental excitement or painful stimulation, and sweating mainly occurs in palms, toes and armpits. Among warm-blooded animals, goats and rabbits don't sweat, cats and dogs only sweat on their toes, and cows and pigs sweat on their noses. These non-sweating animals regulate their body temperature by shallow breathing and heat dissipation. Horses, donkeys and mules almost sweat all over; The sweat glands except the toe ball belong to apocrine glands; Humans only have apocrine glands in the armpits, and others are exocrine sweat glands. Sweating on animals' feet is considered to prevent slipping when catching prey, which is an adaptive phenomenon in life. Secretory nerves of sweat glands are sympathetic nerves and cholinergic nerve fibers. Sweating centers vary from animal to animal, some in the spinal cord and some in the hypothalamus (warm sweating). The human mental sweating center is thought to be in the cerebral cortex. Sweat contains about 0.2% sodium chloride, K+, pyruvate, lactic acid, sugar, creatinine and ammonia.
