My hands and feet are constantly sweating. i have other symptoms that have me very worried i have a brain tumor. is sweaty hands and feet a sign?

Hyperhydrosis: These are signs of overactivity of your sweat glands and are not at all signs of a brain tumor. Botox injections could readily provide a control measure.

No: Brain tumors can cause seizures, headaches, and neurological deficits, but excessive sweating of the hands and feet is not a symptom typically associated with a brain tumor. Your problem likely has little to do with your brain, see your doctor to discuss causes and possible treatments.
