Night sweating in sleep face and neck
Since last 5 days i have sweating on my forehead, head and neck only (my neck feels cold) and not whole body, while sleeping at night. It is not drenching or soaking but damp and sweaty. One night it didn't happen out of 5 nights. It only happens between 1 am to 5 am, and then when i wake up around 4-5 am and then sleep it doesn't happen at all.
What could this be as it is not typical drenching night sweats but only forehead, head and neck. I also had sore throat, runny nose and little cough with phlegm week prior before sweating began which is now cured. I had no fever during the time i was unwell. I have no fever , weight loss or any other symptoms along with night sweating

Night sweats in any part is body's response to infection or strain as in low blood sugar or angina. The timings are that, when adrenergic hormones are released in peak time.
Get complete blood count with ESR, blood sugar, sputum examination and X ray chest done. Share results and what meds you have taken for cold and cough? Are the symptoms still persistent?

Such symptoms could be a manifestation of any on going medical event which may or may not be significant. If it isn't bothering you much it would be best to wait and watch for recurrence and not panic. Try sleeping in more comfortable conditions or environment. If problems persist, a consultation would be required for a detailed evaluation.
Next Steps
Relax and wait and watch
