Active sweating means that muscles keep moving and then consume energy and fat. This kind of hot sweating is to let sweat discharge waste and take away the heat generated by muscles to maintain body temperature. Don't forget, we humans are warm-blooded animals. So this kind of sweat is healthy and natural from the inside out, which accords with the characteristics of human evolution.
High temperature, nervousness, emotional excitement and eating mala Tang will make people sweat. If the function of sweat glands is abnormal, when the human body is in a state of high fever, it can not play the role of sweating, and people will have a high fever, which may also cause damage to the heart, brain, liver, kidney and blood system. This shows the importance of sweat glands in regulating human body temperature.
In Chinese medicine, there are two kinds of sweating: dynamic sweating and static sweating. Sweating caused by weather and environment belongs to static sweating, which is equivalent to passive sweating. Many abnormal static sweating needs attention, such as spontaneous sweating and night sweats.
Some people sweat on their foreheads and backs when they are not hot or exercising, and are prone to fatigue, colds and palpitations, especially afraid of the wind and cold. This is called spontaneous sweating, which is a manifestation of qi deficiency. Sweating when you fall asleep at night is called night sweats, which is a manifestation of yin deficiency.
