What Causes Excessive Sweating?
- Primary Hyperhidrosis: This is a condition in itself characterized by overactive sweat glands and not caused by another medical condition or medications.
- Secondary Hyperhidrosis: Unlike primary hyperhidrosis, this form is caused by an underlying medical condition or is a side effect of medication.
- Stress and Anxiety: Emotional stress and anxiety can activate the sweat glands, leading to excessive sweating, particularly in the underarm area and palms.
- Heat and Humidity: Environmental factors like high temperatures and humidity can increase sweating.
- Physical Activity and Exercise: Vigorous physical activity naturally increases sweating.
