I sweat a lot at night. during the day my hands and feet are ice cold but they're sweaty or clammy. i'm not sick. what is causing this?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hyperhidrosis: Granted no medical problems causing the excessive sweating, the fall back diagnosis is idiopathic hyperhidrosis. Treatment options include: antiperspirant, anticholinergic meds, Botox injections (very effective) and surgery for the appropriate candidates. See doc to rule out secondary causes first.
