Why do I sweat when I sit still?

The main reason for sweating while sitting still is the hot weather. In addition, if the body has characteristics of qi deficiency, it will also cause such a phenomenon. When the body shows characteristics of qi deficiency, it often causes the body to sweat profusely. For such people, it is necessary to replenish water in time, do moderate exercise, and strengthen nourishment with certain Chinese medicines. In order to improve the physical constitution, some methods of replenishing qi should be taken in time.

Warning signal: Qi deficiency

Some people will sweat profusely even when sitting still or sweat profusely after a little exercise. These symptoms are mostly caused by qi deficiency. Director Wang Jiyong introduced that Chinese medicine believes that "Qi solidifies the body's surface" and can "absorb blood and sweat." If the Qi is sufficient, it will attract sweat like a magnet and prevent it from leaking out. If the Qi is deficient, it will lose traction and sweat will flow out uncontrollably. This is the reason for the so-called "prone sweat". Generally speaking, Qi deficiency is caused by poor physical condition, such as congenital deficiency or acquired excessive fatigue, long-term illness, repeated medication that damages the body, etc., all of which can lead to Qi deficiency. The symptoms of this type of people are also quite typical. In addition to sweating profusely, they often feel tired, lazy, and relatively quiet.

Sweating easily while sleeping is mostly "night sweats"

Warning signal: Yin deficiency and excessive fire

People with Qi deficiency often sweat spontaneously (that is, they sweat a lot whether they are moving or not when they are awake). The difference is that some people tend to sweat violently at night, especially after falling asleep, and sometimes even sweat two or three pajamas in one night. This situation is called "night sweats", which is most common in people with Yin deficiency and hyperactivity of fire. People of this type often have trouble sleeping at night, and also have symptoms such as dry mouth, sore throat, hoarseness, and dry stools. Recommendation: People with yin deficiency and excessive fire can use American ginseng to regulate their body in the summer, such as drinking water soaked with American ginseng slices, or taking Zhibai Dihuang Pills. Drinking snow fungus syrup and raw earth, peanut and pig's trotter soup can also nourish yin and clear heat. People with yin deficiency and excessive fire should not eat irritating foods. People with Yin deficiency and excess fire are prone to losing their temper. They should do more things to relax their body and mind, such as listening to music, reading, painting, traveling, meeting with friends, etc. They can also take time to do massage and cupping to relieve physical tension, which can also improve their mood.
