Try Drysol: Unfortunately, some people are more prone to excessive sweating. This can be exacerbated by hormonal conditions, obesity, and other factors. You can try Drysol, or special over the counter aluminum chloride solutions designed to reduce sweating. If your condition persists, see ur clinician for further evaluation. Take care!
