What Causes Excessive Sweating Around The Right Breast?
my right breast is sweating so much at night if I sleep on it, I m soaking the bed with sweat, other than this I am fit and healthy only had bloods done 2 weeks ago. I have recently lost 4stone (dieting and exercise) and can now feel implant on right breast can this be causing the sweating somehow as there is very very little natural breast tissue?

Hello,
Exact cause for sweating under arm is towards the side of implant. I have seen same complaint in my patients with post breast implant.
Probably, false regeneration of secretary nerve fibers towards the sweat glands. Please consult your doctor so that he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
