Not an allergy: You would not have an allergy to sweat. You could have a sensitivity reaction to what comes out in the sweat as it is a way for the body to detoxify, and some people are very sensitive to chemicals.You could get itching or a rash. I recall one lady that came to the doctor thinking she was allergic to her husband but it was the chemicals she was exposed to at work that came out in his sweat

Sweat?: Probably misnamed. Consider heat hives, excercise hives, eczema worsened by sweat or others. When hives are triggered under conditions we sweat, watch for dizziness or passing out; this could mean anaphylaxis, which is serious. Sometimes this only happens when exercising after food, even as seemingly harmless as celery. Weird, huh?
