Color sweat

Chromhidrosis is a rare disease. It is a colored sweat secreted by the sweat glands, often caused by bacteria that produce pigment. Small sweat glands rarely emit colored sweat, and occasional ingestion of certain drugs or dyes can also cause colored sweat. There are also records of yellow sweat and sweat in the TCM literature. For example, "Huang Khan" in the "Essays on the Source of Diseases" records: "Yellow Khan is sick, the body is swollen, fever, sweating and thirsty, strong as feng shui, sweat dyed clothes, Zheng Huang as swill."
