Sweat is produced in tiny coil-shaped chambers under the skin. That chamber is connected to the surface by a narrow tube. Together, the chamber and the tube make up a single sweat gland.
When you start to sweat, the first thing that happens is that the walls of the coil-shaped chamber pump salt into the chamber. As a result, the fluid inside the chamber becomes more concentrated with salt.
In order to balance out the new difference in salt concentration, water passes by osmosis into the chamber. As the water pressure increases in the chamber, the salty water is forced out through the narrow passage to the surface of the skin
