I SWEAT ALOT!!! (help me, this is serious)?
hey everyone i asked the question why do i sweat alot under my arms and starting to on my back before.. and i got this reply from a lady.
”You have excessive sweating.
Causes include
Alcohol
Caffeine
Cancer
Certain medicines, including thyroid hormone, morphine, drugs to reduce fevers, and medicines to treat mental disorders
Emotional or stressful situations (anxiety)
Exercise
Fever
Infection
Low blood sugar
Menopause
Overactive thyroid gland
Spicy foods (known as "gustatory sweating")
Warm temperatures
Withdrawal from alcohol or narcotic pain killers
You should see your doctor about this as it can become a serious matter.”
But the thing is i only drink alchohol once a month not even that, i dont drink cofee so theere is no caffene in my diet, i’m pretty sure i dont have cancer lol, i do have a mental disorder called anxiety and i take a tablet each morning for that but i had sweating even before i started taking tablets but i had anxiety before the sweating came, it not excersis because when im just sitting down the patches would come but when i excersise it becomes even bigger, i’m not sick at all like no fever of infection, i donno what these three mean
”Low blood sugar
Menopause
Overactive thyroid gland”
but i dont think i have them because then i would knowwhat they are, i dont eat spicy food only once in a blue moon, i am always warm temperatured though like i can never wear a jumper for to long and such but i have always had that and i only started to sweat like 6 months ago, and i havent withdrawed from alcohol or pain killers, and im skinny and pretty fit.
SO PLEASE I STILL HAVE NO ANSWERS TO WHATS WRONG WITH ME SO I CAN GET RID OF IT, PLEASE HELP ME THIS IS RUINING MY LIFE.
Well, anxiety can exacerbate it.
The term is hyperhidrosis and it is a recognised medical condition.
Primary hyperhidrosis is the condition characterized by abnormally increased perspiration, in excess of that required for regulation of body temperature. It is usually found to start during adolescence (or before)and there appears to be a genetic tendency towards the condition.
Primary hyperhidrosis must be distinguished from secondary hyperhidrosis, which can start at any point in life.
I think the other post gave you the sometime causes of secondary hyperhidrosis which usually has an underlying medical condition.
There is too much to copy and paste so look at the link and consider whether it is serious enough to speak to your doctor.

Doctors do not know why some people sweat more than others, but they believe that the condition can be inherited, especially with people who sweat more on their soles and palms.
The cause of sweating and body odor most probably stems from your body’s temperature regulation system, specifically your sweat glands.
Sweating is obviously exacerbated by heat, but anxiety can also accentuate the problem.
Choose natural-fiber clothing – Wear natural fabrics, such as cotton, wool and silk, which allow your skin to breathe. Wear loose fitting and light clothing that allows your skin to breathe. Wear light colored clothing that will not absorb the heat. When you exercise, you might prefer high-tech fabrics that wick moisture away from your skin.
Try relaxation techniques – Consider relaxation techniques such as yoga, meditation or biofeedback. These can help you learn to control the stress that triggers perspiration. Holistic view of treating suggests that herbal & homeopathic formulas be used in conjunction with these alternate methods & relaxation techniques.
There are a number of natural ingredients that can help reduce sweating and treat some of the underlying causes. Nat mur. helps to reduce excessive sweating and clamminess.
Lupulus as well as Castoreum and Argentum Nitricum help to address sweating, especially when related to nervousness, panic, anxiety, or obsessive thoughts. Lastly the ingredient Syphilinum helps to control fluid levels in the body, while also helping to control body odor which commonly accompanies excessive sweating.
