What Causes Excessive Sweating During Defecation Along With Severe Pain In The Stomach?
Question: I sometimes get excessive sweating while going to the potty, with severe pain in the stomach. i had an episode yesterday with diarrhea and vomiting. Yesterday's episode seems to be due to something I ate but the sweating during motion has happened earlier even without diarrhea. I feel slightly dizzy and I have severe pain near my rectum
Brief Answer:
About Diaphoresis and bowel movement
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I appreciate your concern
The sweating and diaphoresis is likely to be related to the rectal pain and straining associated with the bowel movements. Local examination and DRE(Digital rectal examination ) should be done to look for the possible cause such as an anal fissure or hemorrhoid.
A few further work-ups like Thyroid function tests should also be done to rule out a hyperthyroid state. Please discuss this with your doctor also.
Let me know if you have any query,
Wishing you best of health.
Thanks
