What causes excessive sweating?

Sometimes, sweat can be extreme, embarrassing, and uncomfortable. There are two to four million sweat glands in your body, and with that many overactive sweat glands a body can produce a lot of moisture.[1]

People with hyperhidrosis don’t have more sweat glands than other people do, but they are more active, leading to an increased amount of sweat.

If you’re concerned about how much sweat you’re experiencing and the potential reasons for it, then take a look at some common causes behind this condition

Summer Tips to Hide Sweat and Stay Cool with Excessive Sweating

SUMMER IS COMING! Sweating is but normal to one’s body as the perspiration signifies the response of the brain through the sympathetic nervous system to the sudden change of body temperature. This is due to some factors like sun exposure, physical exercise and even tension. But excessive sweating like in the armpit creates problem to some, especially if it shows on their clothes. Visible armpit sweat besides the regular showers and the use of antiperspirant does not only cause embarrassed moments but also give bad impression and can cause bad odor too.

Social impact of excessive sweating

The physical and psychological impact of excessive sweating cannot be underestimated but do not forget about the social impact as well. Excessive sweating causes a great deal of embarrassment for the sufferer especially in social situations which require close contact with others. Parties are a good example of this as are workplace meetings. What happens is that the sufferer avoids these types of situations which have a negative effect on their confidence and self esteem.

Their main concern is that of appearing sweaty and dishevelled especially in a situation which requires them to present a professional appearance.

But when fear spreads out into a general condition, it becomes a mysterious thing: anxiety. Anxious people are afraid even though there is nothing "out there" to be afraid of.
