A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hyperhidrosis: This is called hyperhidrosis. If it has been with you since childhood, it is part of who you are. Avoid clothing that shows the wetness,avoid triggers such as hot or spicy food,wear loose clothing and avoid nylon and lycra. While it is an annoying problem, it does not have any clinical significance if it has been with you your whole life. :)
