What Causes Sweating At Night And Infrequent Bowel Movement?
Sweating at night, smells like vinegar. Not making frequent bathroom visits though. Im 19, 5'10, about 270 pounds. My diet is pretty typical. Not a lot of fast food, but not a lot of healthy food. Have recently began drinking more water to try and reduce this from happening. Any thoughts?

Hi,
You are reporting to have sweating at night, smelling like vinegar recently. At this point, if I was your caring doctor would advise to run further tests to determine the right cause:
- thyroid function test
- fasting blood sugar
- measure your blood sugar if you wake up in the middle of the night sweating
- neurological examination
For the moment, I advise to continue drinking more water to keep hydrated and take oral OTC.
Hope it was of help!
