Hematohidrosis, a rare condition characterized by the excretion of blood through the sweat glands, shows diagnostic challenges due to its scarcity. A 2-month-old male infant presented with recurrent bleeding from his nose, eyes, and ears, which appeared to be sweating blood. Clinical examinations, including imaging and laboratory investigations, were unremarkable. The diagnosis was made by exclusion criteria and confirmed with the administration of anxiolytics (lorazepam) and propranolol, which significantly reduced the bleeding episodes. The patient remained asymptomatic after discontinuation of propranolol. This case underscores the importance of clinical vigilance and comprehensive evaluation in diagnosing and managing hematohidrosis, particularly in infants, where prompt intervention can alleviate symptoms and prevent complications.
