We often meet such patients, some are sweating hands and feet, some are sweating body, sweating when you move, and people are not comfortable, seeking medical help everywhere, with poor results, some doctors say it is a plant nerve dysfunction.
So, what is the vegetative nerve? And what is sweating?
The vegetative nerves, also called autonomic nerves, are the nervous system that regulates the functional activities of the internal organs, including sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves, which are distributed to the internal organs, cardiovascular and glandular bodies, and regulate the functions of these organs. The autonomic nervous system in turn receives control from the central nervous system.
Sweating is the active secretion of sweat by the sweat glands. There are three conditions in the body that can cause sweat secretion by the sweat glands: first, warm sweating, which is caused by warm stimulation; second, mental sweating, which is caused by mental tension or emotional excitement; third, gustatory sweating, which is caused by the stimulation of painful nerve endings in the mouth when eating spicy food and reflexively causes sweating in the head and The third is gustatory sweating. The sweating discussed here is mainly warm sweating and mental sweating. The physiological significance of warm sweating is to maintain the relative stability of body temperature through evaporation of heat from sweat. Mental sweating has little to do with thermoregulation, but is one of the manifestations of the body’s stress response. Thermal and psychogenic stimuli often occur together and cannot be separated.
The sweating we meet, the individual performance is very easy to sweat, but there is no reason, indicating that the individual nervous system itself is in a state of tension, the slightest stimulation, the amount of stimulation will increase significantly, the body’s ability to regulate decreases, can not restore the normal state, the individual slightly exercise or mental slightly nervous, the individual nervous system tension will increase significantly, causing the body to sweat constantly. The amount of sweating does not correspond to the amount of activity or the degree of mental tension.
In the face of repeated sweating with no obvious cause, the regulation is still to ensure sleep, proper exercise, regular life, mental regulation, and avoid overwork. If necessary, medication can be used, and medication is still effective according to neurotransmitter theory.
