I woke up sweaty all over my afternoon when I went to bed, what s going on

Hello everyone, I'm Senior Brother Lei, now young people sleep very little before 11 o'clock at night, and staying up late for a long time will cause yin deficiency, today let's talk about what happens to people with yin deficiency.

Some patients with night sweats sweat as soon as they fall asleep, some sleep until midnight, and some have night sweats after closing their eyes for a while. The amount of sweat varies greatly. According to the clinical manifestations of night sweat patients, they can be divided into three types: mild, moderate and severe.

Most patients with mild night sweats are prone to sweat at about 5 o'clock in the morning or 1 to 2 hours before waking up when they fall asleep, and only feel a little sweat on their whole body or some parts of the body after waking up, and no sweat is leaking again after waking up. It is generally not accompanied by a feeling of discomfort.

For patients with moderate night sweats, most of them can sweat soon after falling asleep, and even make their sleeping clothes soaked, and the sweat will stop after waking up, and after wiping the sweat on the body, they will no longer sweat when they fall asleep. In this type of night sweats, patients often have a feeling of heat, hot sweating, and sometimes a feeling of dry mouth and throat after waking up.

Patients with severe night sweats are prone to sweating. Soon after falling asleep or just after closing your eyes and about to fall asleep, there is a large amount of sweat gushing out at night, and you can wake up after sweating, and the sweat can be instantly retracted after waking up. When you fall back asleep, you can sweat again.

Sweating is profuse, and sweat often has a light salty taste, or sweat is mixed with sweat odor at the same time. Sweating can even make the bedding soaked, and it is impossible to sleep peacefully without changing the bedding several times a night, and some patients with severe evidence can make the bedding soaked, and sweat can print sweat stains on the bed board when the bedding is thin or when using a mat. These patients are often accompanied by a significant feeling of heat, irritability, dry mouth after sweating, and a preference for cold water.

It may be accompanied by low-grade fever or hot flashes, five irritability, red cheeks, dizziness, emaciation, fatigue, dark urine, low urine output, and dry stools.

Mild and moderate night sweats will not cause much damage to the body, but patients with severe night sweats will often worsen their condition and develop to "dehydration" over time, which seriously threatens the health and life safety of patients.

It's normal to sweat this season.

Analysis: Night sweats are a typical manifestation of yin and yang imbalance in the human body, which is generally caused by yin deficiency. We believe in traditional Chinese medicine that between the skin and texture of the human body, there is a breath of qi, which is called Wei Qi, which mainly plays the role of fixing and defending, and Gu Qi is in charge of the opening and closing of sweat pores and the excretion of sweat.

Defensive function is a self-protection mechanism for the body to resist changes in the external environment. Wei Qi fills the whole body of the human body during the day, and at night, Wei Qi begins to adduct, that is, when the person is asleep, the Wei Qi is fully adducted, so when the person sleeps, it needs to be covered, because the Wei Qi is adducted, and the body's defense is weakened. Wei Qi belongs to Yang, Jin liquid belongs to Yin, Wei Qi enters the inside, and Yin and Yang are combined.

Suggestions: However, patients with night sweats, due to various reasons lead to a deficiency of fluid in the body (such as love for spicy, overwork, dry living environment and lack of water, or genetics caused by yin deficiency constitution, etc.), then, when the night yang qi into the inside, yin and yang are incompatible, yin deficiency can not compete with yang, will be forced out of the body by yang energy, plus at this time Wei Yang enters, the ability of the skin on the body surface to fix the sweat pores is greatly weakened, so the yin fluid forced out at this time will naturally flow out with the sweat pores, resulting in night sweats.
