A 52-year old man from Wuhan, China had started perspiring green sweat baffling local doctors who to date has failed to diagnose the cause despite numerous testing.

Cheng Shunguo, claims he began perspiring green sweat sometime in the middle of November, though he hastens to add it causes him no discomfort.

"I noticed that my underwear and bed sheets were all green, and even the water in the shower," Cheng said.

Greatly worried, Cheng hurried to a hospital where doctors gave his armpit a thoroughly cleaning but after just 10 minutes, his sweat turned a piece of white gauze green prompting the physicians to carry out blood sampling which turned out to be negative for any infections.

"We can't find the cause," said a spokesman for the hospital.
