Question 10

i have excessive sweaty hands, its embarrasing and really bad. do you have any suggestions? like something simple i could put on my hands, but i want it to be effective

Accepted Answer

An : An anti-perspirant called drysol works fairly well. You may need a prescription to by it but often do not. I assume you have had this problem for years. If this is not effective, there are  other treatments some invasive and surgical. If you are hot and sweaty elsewhere on your body you should be evaluated for medical conditions besides what you appear to have  (technical name is: palmar hyperhidrosis). Also see the link below.
