Talk to Internal Medicine on Excessive Sweating

person-avatar

Asking for Self, Male, 28 years old, Lahore

I am facing excessive sweating throughout the body. I just recovered from severe temperature after 3 days. My temperature used to shoot up to 103 F after every 4 hours along with a sore throat and flu. Today, despite the cold weather, I am sweating so much. It is almost uncontrollable. I am taking an antibiotic (Caricef), simple panadol (only when I am having a temperature), and cough syrup (Dr. Koff). Kindly help

It seems you are having Upper respiratory tract infection. Sweating is due to temperature spikes. I would advise you to continue your antibiotic and if there is no response in 2 days change your antibiotic . When temperature settles sweating will also settle.
