Why do my palms sweat so much?

Excessive sweating on the palms can have a certain impact and trouble on your life. If you are always in a high temperature environment, or are under long-term emotional tension and depression, you will tend to sweat frequently. However, if it is a problem of physical weakness, you need to pay attention to body regulation.

1. Sweating hands and feet may be a sign of hyperhidrosis. Due to excessive sweating, people often find it difficult to extend their hands when they need to shake hands in social situations.

2. Normal people tend to sweat only after physical labor or in high temperature environments in summer, and their hands and feet rarely sweat at other times. The occurrence of hyperhidrosis may be related to endocrine dysfunction. Hyperhidrosis of the hands and feet is a common clinical condition, which often begins in childhood or adolescence. It can occur in both men and women and can last for several years, but it will improve or heal itself after the age of 25. In addition, the occurrence of hyperhidrosis is related to mental factors. For example, sweating caused by stimulation of emotional tension, pain, fear, etc. is mostly caused by sympathetic nervous system disorders.

3. Regarding the treatment of hyperhidrosis, first of all, we must pay attention to skin cleansing, and secondly, we can use topical medications for treatment: such as applying 5% formaldehyde solution (formalin solution) externally, twice a day; or soaking in 1% formaldehyde solution, 0.5% lead acetate solution, 5% alum solution or 5% tannic acid solution, each time for about 10 minutes, once a day. In addition, before going to bed, apply 20% aluminum oxide anhydrous alcohol solution on your hands or feet, cover with a layer of airtight thin polyethylene plastic and fix for 4-8 hours, wash it off the next morning, continue the treatment for 2 days, and repeat every 3-7 days thereafter. If necessary, taking some sedatives and sleeping pills, such as bromide, phenobarbital, etc., can also have a certain effect.
