Renal failure patients are unable to pass urine and toxic products remain inside their bodies. If there is excessive sweating in such person, can the waste products leave the body via sweat instead of urine? Can artificial sweating reduce the burden on dialysis?
Sweat predominantly excretes out salt and water - not ammonia, urea and other toxic chemicals that the kidney has to excrete. Excessive sweating will remove too much sodium from the body and cause imbalances. So assisting sweating may not be beneficial.
