What Causes Night Sweats?
Question: All off a sudden I having horrible nght sweats and the only change is a recent iron infusion
Brief Answer:
There is nothing to worry about
Detailed Answer:
Hi dear and thanks for your query.
I understand your concern but there is nothing to worry if night sweats aren't associated with other troubling symptoms like fever, chills etc .
If your bedroom is unusually hot or you are using too many bedclothes, you may begin to sweat during sleep - and this is normal.
If night sweats go for along time you should consult with a health care practitioner for a complete check-up to determine the cause of it.
Try to keep bedroom airy and put on cotton clothes and wide ,when you fall asleep.
All the best
