Sweating is common. It’s the body’s way of cooling down after becoming overheated from exercise or a hot environment. It could also be a result of being nervous or afraid. If you find yourself sweating excessively even when you are not active or hot, you may have hyperhidrosis, or excessive sweating.
Excessive sweating can be caused by a variety of factors, and while there is no cure for hyperhidrosis, proper diagnosis can lead to effective treatments. Discover the primary causes of hyperhidrosis and some treatment options for excessive sweating.
Because of the high concentration of sweat glands in the hands, feet, armpits, and groyne, hyperhidrosis-related excessive sweating is most common there.
Consult the best dermatologist in Dubai if you experience excessive sweating.
Symptoms of hyperhidrosis

Causes of excessive sweating
Sweating is how your body cools itself when it becomes overheated (for example, when you’re exercising, sick, or extremely nervous). Nerves signal your sweat glands to produce sweat. Certain sweat glands work overtime for no apparent reason in hyperhidrosis, producing sweat that you don’t need.

Treatment
If an underlying medical condition is causing the problem, it will be treated first. If there is no clear cause, treatment focuses on controlling excessive sweating. Sometimes a combination of treatments is required. Even if your sweating improves after treatment, it is possible that it will return.
