Suggest Treatment For Profuse Sweating In Legs While Sleeping

Almost every night while I am sleeping, I sweat badly from the waste down... Mostly my legs though. Its so bad that if i am wearing pajamas, they are soaked. If i am just wearing boxers then my bedding is soaked. Sometimes, both PJ s and Bedding are soaked. When i take the blanket off they start to dry up, but then i get cold. It causes me to lose sleep because i wake up to this at least 5 times through the night.

Hello,

There are some pathologies causing excessive sweating such as; overactive thyroid, infections, lymphoma etc.

You should see a physician who will ask for some blood tests in order to find out the diagnosis.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
