Lately when layd own and have my knees bent they start sweating from behind. I am also sweating under my chest and between thighs. No smell. Not dripping water but a clammy feeling. For example with my knees when they start getting clammy I have to extend my legs. This has been happening for a week now. I been sleeping without clothing as well and have a ceiling fan and a portable fan constantly cooling me.
Hi there. Thanks for posting here. Excessive sweating has many reasons like changes in the weather, ventilation, intrinsic factors like hormonal changes, thyroid functions etc. You appear to have a physiological sweating, not to worry. You can get a thyroid profile from the nearby laboratory to rule out hyperthyroidism. Hope this is useful to you. Regards, Dr Shilpa Bhat Bangalore
