Can men take medicine to treat hyperhidrosis? How to treat it?

Sweat is a normal body fluid secreted by the human body, which contains a certain amount of salt and other substances. The discharge of sweat is the body's way of cooling down in response to external overheating. Some sweating symptoms are caused by internal diseases, such as fever, sweating, etc., which are all caused by internal reasons. The phenomenon of male sweating has appeared more and more in recent years, which has brought a certain warning effect to men's health. At the same time, male sweating also makes men nervous and afraid of suffering from some major diseases. Let's take a look at whether it is okay to take medicine for male sweating? How to treat it?

Causes of male hyperhidrosis:

There are two types of diaphoresis: physiological and pathological. Diaphoresis refers to sweating after falling asleep and stopping after waking up. It is mostly a symptom of exhaustion, especially in patients with yin deficiency.

1. Sleeping environment

Men sweat when they sleep at night, which is related to the air circulation in the sleeping environment and whether the bedding is breathable.

2. Disease response

Some diseases such as tuberculosis, endocarditis or malignant tumors such as lymphoma may cause men to experience night sweats.

3. Secretion disorders

People with endocrine disorders, such as diabetes, hyperthyroidism, and those with emotional disorders and autonomic nervous system disorders may also sweat profusely at night.

Treatment of male hyperhidrosis:

1. Sweating due to deficiency of qi is also called diaphoresis. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, diaphoresis at night may be caused by qi deficiency or yin deficiency. If diaphoresis is caused by qi deficiency, it is generally due to poor vasodilator function and insufficient blood in the heart, resulting in diaphoresis, palpitations and insomnia. It is advisable to replenish blood and nourish the heart. If it is caused by yin deficiency constitution, the body will have symptoms of dryness and heat, and there will also be diaphoresis. Diaphoresis caused by yin deficiency and excessive fire will cause heat in the five hearts, and it is advisable to nourish yin and reduce fire.

2. Qi-replenishing pork ribs soup can relieve sweating. Take 2 grams of ginkgo, 15 grams of raw astragalus, 10 grams of fried white atractylodes and half a pound of pork ribs and stew them together. Astragalus and white atractylodes can replenish lung qi, while ginkgo can moisten the lungs and resolve phlegm, which is effective for sweating caused by weak lung qi.

3. If you find it troublesome to stew soup, you can also go to the supermarket to buy some black plums and dates, and take some to make tea every day. Black plums can promote the production of body fluids, and dates can replenish blood. Drinking these two together as tea will only take a week to see obvious results.
