Hyperhydrosis: Sometimes you can have over active sweat glands in your hands. You can try topical liquid anti-perspirants, and now botox/dysport injections can last almost a year when done for this problem. Can be quite costly!

It: Is an unusual sympathetic nerve response to cold air. It does happen to some people and has to do with dermis response and blood flow shunting in capillaries.
