Sweating in the calf’s fossa may be caused by physiological reasons such as hot weather, excessive exercise, etc. It may also be caused by pathologic factors such as hypoglycemia, hyperthyroidism and calcium deficiency.
1. Physiological reasons: when the weather is hot, excessive exercise, the body’s metabolism is fast, sweat gland secretion is vigorous, the body will sweat a lot, the popliteal fossa of blood vessels and sweat gland secretion is vigorous, the metabolism increases when exercising, which can promote the circulation of blood vessels, so that the calf’s nest sweating.
2. Hypoglycemia: when the blood sugar of human body is too low, it will stimulate the sympathetic nervous system, make it produce excitement and promote the regulation of sweat glands, so that the secretion of sweat glands in the calf’s fossa is exuberant, which will lead to the phenomenon of sweating.
3. Hyperthyroidism: elevated levels of thyroid hormones will promote the body’s metabolism, promote the body’s redox reaction, so that a large amount of sweat secretion, the phenomenon of calf pit sweating.
4. Calcium deficiency: Calcium deficiency will reduce the body’s blood calcium concentration, affecting the body’s metabolism, the sympathetic nerve produces excitement, promoting sweat gland secretion, causing the phenomenon of calf pit sweating.
Sweating in the calf socket may have other causes, if not relieved by rest or adjustment, it is recommended that the patient go to the hospital in a timely manner, in order to clarify the cause of the disease, and to carry out targeted treatment.
