Hematidrosis (blood sweat)
Hematidrosis also called blood sweat, is a very rare condition in which a human sweats blood. The term is from haima meaning blood, and hidros meaning sweat.
Hematidrosis is rare?
Hermatidrosis is extremely rare, which makes it difficult for doctors to research the condition. The condition may manifest differently in every individual. This makes it difficult for doctors to offer clear prognoses or test which treatments are most effective. A case study published gathered data on 18 years old women with Hematidrosis. For 6 months, she experienced bleeding from the forehead, eyes, hands, naval, and fingernails. All laboratory and other test were normal, though the frequency of the bleeding increased over time. While hospitalized, the women experienced 30 distinct episodes. Doctors were never able to diagnose or treat the cause of the bleeding, but 20 months her diagnosis, the bleeding had greatly decreased.
Sign and Symptoms:
Blood oozes from the forehead, nails, umbilicus, and other skin surfaces. In addition, oozing from the mucocutaneous surface causing nosebleeds, bloodstained tears, and vicarious menstruation are common. The episodes may be preceded by intense headache and abdominal pain and are usually self- limiting. In some conditions, the secreted fluid is more dilute and appears to be blood tinged, while others may have darker bright red secretion resembling blood.
People who have Hematidrosis may sweat blood from their skin. It usually happens on or around the face, but the skin might be lining the inside of your body, too like in your nose, mouth or stomach. The skin around the bloody area may swell temporarily.
Crying tears of blood are related. it's called Haemolacria. Bleeding from the ear is called blood otorrhea. Hematodrosis can look like blood, bloody sweat, or sweat with droplets of blood in it. Sweating a different color like yellow, blue, green, or back is a different condition called chromhidrosis.
Causes:
Hematidrosis is a condition in which capillary, blood vessels that feed the sweat glands rupture, causing them to exude blood, occurring under conditions of extreme physical or emotional stress. Severe mental anxiety activates the sympathetic nervous system to invoke the stress fight or flight response to such a degree as to cause hemorrhage of the vessels supplying the sweat glands. It has been suggested that acute fear and extreme stress can cause Hematidrosis.
Bleeding occurs when tiny blood vessels rupture. Some blood vessels, including those near the sweat glands and, is in mucous membranes, are closer to the skin's surface. This makes them more likely to rupture. It also explains why Hematidrosis is more common near the nose. forehead and other parts of the body located near sweat glands or mucous membranes.
Physical and psychological stresses are suspected of causing the condition. This theory might explain why report on religious figure often highlights stories of bloody sweat.
Although stress likely plays a role, it cannot fully explain this phenomenon. Rates of stress, anxiety disorders, and other mental health conditions have increased in recent years, yet Hematidrosis has not. This suggests that other abnormalities may play a role. People with a history of Hematidrosis may have defects in the dermis, the layer of skin beneath the outer layer. This hypothetical skin defect could provide space for blood to accumulate, making it possible to sweat blood.
However, not all cases of bloody sweat are attributable to physical or emotional stress. A case study details the story of a girl with Hematidrosis. The girl had no bleeding disorders, no apparent other medical conditions, and no history of psychological problems or stress. Each bleeding episode lasted 10-15 minutes and did not appear to upset the girl. Doctors do not find any underlying causes for Hematidrosis. Some other studies have found that nervous system issues may play a role in Hematidrosis.
