The medical term for excessive sweating is 'hyperhidrosis'. It may only affect the armpits,feet or hands, or it may may affect all areas supplied by sweat glands.
The definitive cause is not yet known, although hot weather, exercise and anxiety are usually common causes. In some cases, an infection or hypoglycaemia( an abnormally low level of glucose in the blood)may play a part.
What to do:
Buy clothes made from natural, more absorbent materials, such as cotton or leather.
Use antiperspirants regularly.
If the problem is severe, ask your doctor for advice, as some cases respond to treatment with anticholigergic drugs.
Be patient-most cases of hyperhidrosis start in puberty but clear up by the mid-20's or 30's.
