A health expert has warned that night sweating could be the result of an underlying health issue.
Dr Zoe Williams joined This Morning to explain the unknown problems night sweating can create, noting it could have a direct impact on life expectancy. The main difference between normal sweating and night sweats is the extent and duration as night sweats are prevalent regardless of temperature.
She explained night sweats will leave you "completely soaking" and can be experienced "even if you're having them in a cool environment." Though people may experience it at different levels, she said it should be taken seriously as it may be a sign of serious health issues.
