What Causes Bad Sweating At Night?
my boyfriend has really bad night sweats, now i noticed i wake up damp, could it be because our bed has been sweated in so many times? also it smells sour, and i wake up so frustrated because i feel so dirty and damp. so could it be because our bed has been sweated in so many times or have i developed night sweats because of him

Thank you for asking!
If the circumstances of temperature or beddings are the reasons just modifying them with more spacious and ventilating sleep conditions would help. If it has been a disease nobody gets it from each other unless there is some transmissible cause of drenching sweats like tuberculosis etc.
Get to an doctor and let them sort it out for the probable cause of these night sweats.need work up
take care
