Upper Body Sweating, Painful Legs, Limited Walking. What Is Going On?

My mom has excessive sweating on the upper half of her body only. Not her hands but her face and her body from the waist up. Also she has pain in her legs that limit how far she can walk, only a few yards. Doubtful both are related, but both problems are serious and are affecting her daily life. What do you think I'd wrong. Both problems have been present for years and leg pain is getting worse even though her back is fine. Help! Mary

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The symptoms of your mother can be related to vitamin D3 deficiency, hormonal imbalance, decreased fluid intake or menopause. In case the symptoms are persistent then specific blood tests are needed for diagnosis.
