Cold sweats refers to sudden sweating that doesn't come from heat or exertion. The medical term for cold sweats is diaphoresis. Cold sweats come from the body's response to stress, called a fight or flight response. It's very important to recognize cold sweats when providing first aid. Cold sweats can be a sign of significant injury or illness. What sets cold sweats apart from regular sweating is what the victim is doing when they start. You would expect sweating after doing a few jumping jacks or push ups, but cold sweats come on suddenly and at any temperature. There is no specific treatment of cold sweats. To make them go away, you must treat the underlying cause. For example, if shortness of breath is causing cold sweats, helping the victim to breathe better should help dry the skin. Cold sweats are not the problem; they are the sign of the problem. Recognizing cold sweats when they happen can help identify a problem before it gets too bad.
