My 81 year old mother sweats all the time. She is constantly wiping sweat off her forehead. Is this normal?

Of course it isn't normal! There are a myriad of conditions that could be the cause, from pain to diabetes to ??? Take her for a check up.

Usually the elders are cold natured and turn the heat up to jungle levels. Possibly a medication is causing the side effect of sweating. I have a couple meds that give me brief hot flushes but it doesn’t last long.

How about her blood work? Is it normal? Thyroid problems could cause sweating too.
