COVID and night sweats?

24-year-old woman2 years ago

I had the covid 10 days ago. I was having excruciating night sweats. Almost every night. Is this a symptom? Again last night I woke up 3-4 times soaking wet even though I don't have a fever anymore. Can it still be covid?

Good morning, ma'am,

Sweating can occur when fighting an infection. However, this symptom seems to have been present in you for over a month. I strongly advise you to make an appointment with your doctor to have a thorough evaluation and find a possible cause so as not to delay treatment.

Sincerely,

Tom Samaha, pharmacist
