Is it normal to sweat when embarrassed?

Yep.Totally normal

Yes, sweating when you’re embarrassed is totally normal. Embarrassment can trigger your body’s stress response, even when nothing dangerous is happening.

Embarrassment can make your body go into a mini fight-or-flight mode: your heart may race, your face may get warm, and you may start sweating. It’s a common physical reaction, not a sign that you’re doing anything wrong.

It can feel especially awkward when you notice it, but most people have some version of this reaction. The more you worry about sweating, the more keyed up you may feel—so try to let the moment pass without treating it like a big deal.
