The sweating is not necessarily a precursor to leukemia, because there are many causes of sweating, and the diagnosis of leukemia should not be based on sweating alone, but should be combined with other symptoms for a comprehensive analysis.
The onset of leukemia varies from acute leukemia to chronic leukemia, but in the early stages, low fever and excessive sweating can occur, but at the same time, it is often combined with symptoms such as anemia or weakness. The causes of sweating are many and are considered to be qi deficiency or yin deficiency in Chinese medicine. Qi deficiency is unable to control sweating and causes spontaneous sweating, combined with symptoms such as mental lethargy, fatigue or shortness of breath when moving; Yin deficiency generates internal heat and causes night sweating, combined with symptoms such as dry mouth and tongue, irritability and insomnia.
When sweating occurs, it is usually considered as Qi or Yin deficiency, and is not usually considered as leukemia. If, in addition to false sweating, there are symptoms such as anemia or bleeding, it is recommended to go to the hematology department for examination.
