Hes been sweating when he sleeps what does that mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Night sweats: Could be indicative of an infectious disease and sometimes seen with inflammatory disease and cancer, but just as frequently this is a transient phenomena which resolves as mysteriously as it came. If there are ANY other symptoms - cough, fever, lymph nodes, diarrhea, wt loss, loss of appetite, etc see your doc for evaluation.
