If you sweat a lot, it could mean you have a condition called hyperhidrosis, which is excessive sweating beyond what your body needs to regulate temperature. This happens when your sweat glands overwork and produce sweat even when your body is not hot or physically active. Hyperhidrosis can affect specific areas like palms, feet, armpits, or face, or sometimes the entire body. It is quite common and may cause emotional distress due to embarrassment or discomfort. Excessive sweating can also be triggered by stress, certain foods, or underlying medical conditions such as diabetes, thyroid problems, or infections. If sweating interferes with your daily life or causes distress, consulting a healthcare provider can help identify the cause and explore treatment options that may include lifestyle changes, medications, or therapies aimed at reducing sweat production.
