Does excessive sweating indicate kidney deficiency?

Sweating is something that everyone experiences, especially in hot summer and during strenuous exercise, which will stimulate the pores and cause sweating. It is a very normal sweating. Some sweating is also caused by kidney deficiency or other diseases. In the case of kidney deficiency, it will also cause the body to sweat excessively or sweat spontaneously.

In fact, kidney deficiency is caused by many factors. Although excessive sweating in summer may be due to kidney deficiency, it may also be caused by other reasons.

Kidney deficiency refers to the deficiency of kidney essence, qi, yin and yang. There are many types of kidney deficiency, the most common of which are kidney yin deficiency and kidney yang deficiency. Symptoms of kidney deficiency: The symptoms of kidney yang deficiency are low back pain, cold limbs, fear of cold, and even edema, which are symptoms of "cold". Poor sexual function can also lead to kidney yang deficiency; the symptoms of kidney yin deficiency are "heat", mainly low back pain, dryness, night sweats, spontaneous sweats, dizziness, tinnitus, etc. Therefore, sweating a lot in summer may also be due to kidney yin deficiency.

When a person suffers from kidney deficiency, whether it is kidney yin deficiency or kidney yang deficiency, it will lead to a decrease in the person's immune ability. There is more evidence that when kidney deficiency occurs, the kidney's immune ability is reduced, and the kidney's microcirculation system will also be blocked, and the kidney network will become blocked. Therefore, the treatment of kidney deficiency should combine prevention and treatment.

Is sweating a sign of kidney deficiency? First of all, we should find out the causes of kidney deficiency:

1. Congenital deficiency: Kidney is the foundation of congenitality and contains congenital essence. If parents’ essence and blood are insufficient, their children will often suffer from kidney deficiency.

2. Emotional disorder: Emotional activities (mental state) must be based on the essence of internal organs. Therefore, Chinese medicine attaches great importance to the coordination of the "seven emotions" (joy, anger, worry, thought, sadness, fear, and shock). Disturbance of the seven emotions, mood swings, excessive emotions, and excessive sadness are the main factors causing kidney deficiency.

3. Excessive sexual intercourse: Excessive sexual intercourse will damage kidney essence, and excessive loss of kidney essence will lead to loss of primordial yang and kidney deficiency.

4. Long-term illness hurts the kidneys: Long-term illness without recovery, lack of care, loss of essence and energy, leading to kidney deficiency. Chinese medicine has the saying that "long-term illness hurts the kidneys";

5. Physical weakness due to old age: The kidneys of both men and women begin to become stronger year by year from childhood, reach their peak in middle age, and then show signs of aging in old age due to the decline of kidney qi.
