A doctor has provided 1 answer
Doctor can evaluate: A primary care doctor or a dermatologist can evaluate sweaty hands (called palmar hyperhidrosis), plus discuss emotional stress issues. Drysol is a strong antiperspirant, and is often the first medicine tried (it's put on the hands). Other treatments can be tried also. If sweating continues to be bad, some patients try Botox injections into the sweaty areas to stop the sweat glands from sweating.
