Guest guest Posted February 26, 2001 Report Share Posted February 26, 2001 Has anyone seen this? I have two patients who have reported this symptom. Immediately upon putting food into the mouth, the face begins to sweat. I wonder what the TCM explanation could be. (Sorry, I don't have time right now to provide their cases, and both are knotty complexes of xu and shi.) ============================== Peter L.

Guest guest Posted February 26, 2001 Report Share Posted February 26, 2001 Peter I quote you from Steve Claveys Fluid Physiology " perspiration from the head is in some people normal, for example while eating or in children during sleep " Otherwise head only sweating can be due to damp-heat or yang qi xu.

Guest guest Posted February 26, 2001 Report Share Posted February 26, 2001 I work in many patients, some body has those symptom( sweat when eating) These people has inherit from ancestor ( from father, mom, grandma etc..) they easy to sweat when their body working, when they eat because their body receive the food and respond fast to be working, I do not think that any thing wrong with this problem. Any sweat come out without working, I would think about some kind of problem to the body.
