Whether there is a relationship between severe sweating and heart disease in the elderly cannot be generalized, but needs to be judged according to the symptoms at the time of sweating.
Severe sweating in the elderly may be caused by natural heat plus physical factors such as excessive exercise and physical weakness, and generally after cooling and resting, severe sweating can be significantly relieved, and there is no obvious relationship with heart disease.
Severe sweating in the elderly can also be caused by pathologic diseases such as hyperthyroidism and hyperhidrosis, but can be slowly relieved after rest. However, if severe sweating in the elderly is accompanied by symptoms such as panic, chest tightness, and dyspnea that are not relieved by rest, it may be more related to heart disease.
If an elderly person has symptoms of severe sweating, it is important to determine whether it is related to heart disease. It is recommended to go to the hospital to find out the exact cause and follow the doctor’s guidance and advice to avoid delaying the condition.
