What Causes Excessive Sweating After Fever Is Gone?
Question: Hello, my situation. Fever with symptoms like headache, and body ache. Doctor says it was viral infection after blood work was done. Fever lasted a week yesterday. Fever stopped yesterday but sweat started. Why are my sweating if I am not hot and my body temperature has been reading between 96 and 97 degrees since Fever left?
Brief Answer:
Viral infection in recovery
Detailed Answer:
Dear patient,
Sweating means often that the fever is going down. To me it sounds very much like your infection is recovering and that you will be over it very soon. Please take some rest and drink a lot and give it 1-2 more days.
Best regards
