I am fairly healthy and do moderate exercise but i sweat excessively when exercise, especially on my head. what could be the cause of this? also after i shower my head and neck and back continue to sweat.

Sweating: I do not think this is abnormal. Sweating is part of the exercise response. Some people do sweat more than others, but this is part of there physiology. Perhaps a longer cool down time after exercise would help.
