What Causes Sweating In Legs At Night?

Just reading about all the sweaty legs at night. I am hot when I first lay down, but after a couple of hours of inactivity, I need to be covered. Don t need to change the sheets or anything, but my legs do sweat fairly easily when the contact each other or when bent at the knee. Any ideas?

hi, age, sex and occupation are a must to give you the brilliant ideas i have..
still there are few things you can check out, first your blood pressure, hypertensives tend to sweat more, second check your thyroid levels, hyperthyroidism causes sweating. there are also other conditions lyk acromegaly and pheochromocytoma but i dont want to scare you unnecessarily. so get these check up done, you will get a good idea about it yourself, even if you dont, you know where to ask.. take care n stay safe
