What Causes Excessive Sweating While Walking And Painful Legs?

Can be cardiac problem
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
The sweating and leg pains after walking can be probably due to
1. Dehydration or electrolyte imbalance - Regular intake of rejuvenating fluids during the walk might help. Apart from the sports drinks which contain glucose and electrolytes he must have enough water alongwith to combat dehydration.
2. Low blood sugar - Taking a light breakfast, preferably some lean protein and/or complex carbohydrate with a little healthy fat-- before the walk or immediately after the walk might help him.
3, Low blood pressure can also be the reason - Ask him to breathe deeply when he feels so.
Having chest tightness might be due to lung causes or cardiac causes- allergy or infection or due to some cardiac problems.
4. Anemia - A few blood tests will rule out this condition.
A detailed examination from his cardiologist and tests are entailed to diagnose the problem and further treatment.
