What are signs and symptoms of anhidrosis?

Signs and symptoms of anhidrosis include:

  • Little or no sweating
  • Dizziness
  • Flushing
  • Muscle cramps
  • Overall weakness
  • Feeling hot and not able to cool off

You may lack the ability to sweat in specific areas of your body, or the lack of sweating may be all over. Another pattern of anhidrosis is lack of sweat or very little sweat in certain body areas, but heavy sweating in other body areas. This happens because your body is trying to make up for the lack of sweat in one or more other body areas. Usually this is not a dangerous situation because your body is still able to cool off.
