Is sweating a sign of kidney weakness?

Sweating is not usually seen in patients with kidney deficiency. Slight sweating of the palms is mostly normal, and more sweating of the palms can be caused by yin deficiency and internal heat, yang-ming dryness and heat, and spleen deficiency and dysfunction of transportation. Patients with yin deficiency and internal heat may have excessive sweating of the palms of the hands, which may be accompanied by sweating of the soles of the feet as well, and at the same time have heartburn, emaciation, night sweating (sweating abnormally after falling asleep, but sweating stops after waking up), dry mouth and dry throat, and have a small, red tongue with little moss, and a fine pulse (a pulse that becomes narrower and finer, and at an accelerated rate). The mainstay of treatment medication is nourishing yin and clearing heat (nourishing yin essence and removing heat). Patients with dry heat in Yangming have more sweating in the palms of the hands and sweat easily in the armpits, mainly yellow sticky sweat, and are generally afraid of heat, which may be accompanied by symptoms such as bitter mouth, dry mouth, halitosis, and dry stools. Treatment is based on clearing away heat and fire (removing heat and fire from the body), moistening the intestines and relaxing the bowels. Patients with spleen deficiency and dysfunctional transportation can also see sweaty hands, thin sweat, accompanied by loss of appetite, loose stools, drowsiness and fatigue. Treatment is based on strengthening the spleen and drying dampness (strengthening the spleen and eliminating dampness). When discomfort occurs, you should consult a doctor in time and choose medication under the doctor’s guidance, not self-medication.
