What Causes Night Sweats On Torso And Legs?

I seem to be having night sweats almost regularly in my new house and usually it is just my torso or just my legs, but sometimes both. It seems to be the opposite of wearing to much to bed, as the area sweating is usually the uncovered area. It wakes me up and is greatly uncomfortable.

If this is decidedly unusual symptomatology for you then, you should have full indepth testing of all medications being prescribed/taken, potentially a neurological examination, and infectious disease workup as well looking for lung or other infections, blood testing looking at biological markers for allergies, etc. and possibly autonomic function testing if nothing else pans out for a condition of metabolic, infectious, or hormonal cause.
