Hyponatremia – Symptoms & Causes

Excess Sweating

Profuse sweating, medically known as diaphoresis, can be both the cause and symptom of hyponatremia. In fact, it is one of the most typical signs of the condition. This is a natural response of the body when the balance of fluids and electrolytes is affected by the loss of sodium. However, it is not simple to diagnose hyponatremia with this sign because it is not uncommon in many other health issues. [4]
