What causes body fever and sweating?

Body fever and sweating may be caused by various factors. Body fever and sweating may result from organic diseases such as bacterial or viral infections, hyperthyroidism, etc. These conditions are usually accompanied by elevated body temperature and increased sweating. Concepts in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), such as excessive internal heat, damp-heat, or yin deficiency, may also cause sensations of body heat and sweating, although body temperature might not necessarily be elevated. Non-organic disorders such as autonomic nervous system dysfunction or menopausal syndrome can also lead to similar symptoms. Body fever and sweating can either be physiological responses caused by elevated body temperature due to illness, or result from internal body imbalances or other non-infectious diseases. When experiencing such symptoms, it is recommended to seek timely medical evaluation to determine the underlying cause and receive appropriate treatment.
