Is Excess Sweating At Night A Serious Cause For Concern?
I woke up in the night completely drenched in sweat. My hair was drenched and my pajamas were too. My house is cool at night and I don t have a fever. And I usually don t sweat. I have to be in a jungle to sweat. What do you think could be the reason. Should I seek medical attention? Thanks

Hello,
There are several medical conditions that can cause excess sweating .
I suggest you to do a complete blood count for further evaluation.
The cause can be related to hyperhidrosis, which is a medical condition caused when a person sweats excessively and unpredictable.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
