Quotes About Perspiration

The perspiring of drops of blood is a known, but rare medical condition called hematidrosis. It is thought to be caused by intense anxiety when our body's fight-or-flight mechanism narrows the capillaries to prepare us for actions in the face of fear. If the fear is suddenly relieved, the capillaries dilate and, in some cases, rupture, leaving blood entering the sweat glands. It might actually be a sign of a very rapid relief from anxiety.1
