What makes a body sweat excessively? Not underarm sweating, but facial and body sweat.?

Not underarm sweating, but facial and body sweat. Especially when your out among public, like talking with friends or shopping.

What makes a body sweat excessively? Not underarm sweating, but facial and body sweat.?
I am not sure what causes all of the sweating, perhaps it is the anxiety. But I did see on a plastic surgery show recently that they are injecting some of the sweat glands with Botox and it stops the sweating, for a while. If you are really uncomfortable and it causes more stress, you might look in to that. Best of luck!
Reply:It's anxiety. You might feel awkward or excited in a situation and your heart rate gets faster, causing your body to overheat.
Reply:you may be overheating. drink cold fluids. if you take hot showers, cool down with cold water when you are gettin out. wear lighter fitting and lighter colored clothes.


try to relax and ignore it. it may make you sweat more if you stress out about it. just go to the restroom to freshen up when you start to feel damp


Sweating at times?

is there any reason why i am sweating at certain times of the day without doing any activity at all...i do have pain in my throat when i swallow, could this be the cause of my sweating, trying to get rid of something? maybe an infection?





thanks i appreciate the answers

Sweating at times?
Sure, redsox is absolutely correct here. If you have a problem with your endocrine system, it can cause mysterious sweating. Thyroid pops to mind. Get it checked out. It is obviously not menopause, which is MY problem, so have a physical which is a good idea for everyone once a year or so. Good luck.
Reply:Thank you for the 10 points. I hope your trip to the doctor turns up nothing sinister. I will be thinking of you. DHW Report It

Reply:Sounds like glandular problem. You should see an endocrinologist.
Reply:What time of day are you prone to sweating? I know that after you eat your heart rate increases because your body is working harder to metabolize the food you have eaten, so maybe it's why you are sweating?? Also, if you eat spicy food, or drink hot tea you will sweat more.
Reply:Instead of asking three questions,all related to your throat problem,you should be making an appointment with your doctor.No one here can tell you exactly what you have.Even if someone is a doctor,they cannot help unless they look at you,which is definitely not an option.


Good luck and get well.
Reply:See your doctor
Reply:Best way is to see a doctor because many illnesses share same symptoms you need to be examined dear





hope you get well soon

Sweating Wife?

My wife is 61, past menopause (so we thought) but still has these occasional sweating episodes. She is not on any kind of hormone therapy and generally healthy.


The episodes generally happen in bed. They can happen spontaneously and can also be triggered by an external temperature change such as me snuggling up next to her. When I do that sometimes one minute later, BANG, she breaks out in this cold clammy sweat.


This doesn't always happen but it is annoying and not conducive to physical relationships if you get the picture.


So what's going on? Any women solved this problem?

Sweating Wife?
Well my husband would complain right along with you however I'm only 28. It seems as though even after woman pass menopause (according to my mom that we still have the occasional hot flashes) But I've noticed that it has more to do with the fact that my hubby is a small thin guy and not that I am fat but I am heavier than him therefore retain more body heat. I don't know that this is applicable but I can't handle him snuggling with the blankets on. As crazy as it sounds we set the thermostat lower and I usually sleep with less clothing to try to combat this. I would say she should check in with her doc to see if maybe she is having some hormonal issues. It may also be connected with seratonin (sp) as it can cause some strange tempreture effects if it is out of balance.
Reply:a little insinitive arent you???? try over the counter hormone thearpy
Reply:Even though she is past menopause she can occasionaly still have the night sweats as they are called. There is no need to worry it just happens.
Reply:One thing that you can try is to have the tempature in the house a little cooler. This will make her want to get in a blanket to stat warm and make sure the blanket is light when you are trying to cuddle with her. This happens to me when I sleep and as long as it is really cool in the house I don't break into a sweat. Even if the hubby is beside me.
Reply:It can happen, but the best advice would be for your wife to talk to her primary practioner ie. her doctor.
Reply:the situation not being conducive to physical relationships may actually be a result of her being old as dirt


Sweating after excercise?

I've jus finished excercising and I was sweating like crazy. I heard thats suppose to be good but do I hab to clean it after. I know that its gross if u dont but this yoga instructor said taking a shower aafter excercise is bad fro your body and that helps you gain more weight. But if I dont wont the sweat go back inside my body?

Sweating after excercise?
I sweat a lot during and after exercising. I don't shower at the gym, so by the time I get home, I am usually dry but my clothes are soaked. I shower "very warm water" to relax my muscles and bones. I have lost 112 pounds and have never put it back on because of a "shower". Maybe a snickers bar but not from a "shower". Plus best to shower after, keeps infections down in your private areas.
Reply:whhhhaaaa? why would it be bad? I think you should take a cold shower
Reply:Sweat usually evaporates to keep your body cool... personally, I don't think there is anything wrong with taking a shower after you exercize. I don't see a connection how not showering can "help you gain more weight." Gaining weight has to to with your body's metabolism and how it processes the foods you eat!





Drink plenty of fluids!
Reply:I don't know about sweat going back into the body, that sounds strange, but letting the sweat evaporate on you and staying in damp work out clothes could give you a rash and make you stink. I think you need to ask that yoga instructor to clarify what they said because it doesn't sound right.
Reply:Very Easy, Relax your mind after the exercise, take your m ind of the exercise and soon you will see the changes !
Reply:Both you and your Yoga insructor are on the good ship lollypop aren't you?


You're obsessed with me,admit it.
Reply:Once you have done your exercises and you have done your sweating it will not go back into your body. It is completely untrue as to what your yoga instructor has told you.





I have worked in a physical therapy department and that is the silliest thing that I have ever heard.


Sweating problems?

How do I prevent from sweating? Any ways?


Any ways to prevent odour after sweating?

Sweating problems?
Use deorderant.
Reply:No, don't use deo, the that only fixes smell.





Anti-Perspirant is what you want, as it stops sweating.
Reply:Deodorant. Antiperspirant. Bathing. Air conditioning.
Reply:Drysol should eliminate it, sometimes 4ever, anyway u should ask the doctor, also 4 armpits a natural way is using magnesium milk, GL
Reply:Sweating is healthy for you. Although, if you drink a lot of hot liquids and acidic foods regularly, then you will sweat more profusively. Fruit helps a lot with that and so do certain greens, the darkler, the better.


Sweating problem?

HI my sister wont stop whining about how she cant stop sweating so im going on here so she'll stop whining and she says she has a sweating problem cuase there a tiny litte bit on her shirts

Sweating problem?
ROFL!!! Tops with sponges on the armpits!!! LMFAO!!
Reply:Go to the doctor and get a prescription deoderant.


It will stop all sweating. And it will give her confidence.





It is very strong and will keep her dry : )





Most are unscented, so after you apply the prescribed


deoderant, let it dry then apply a sencond regular good


smelling deoderant. And it may be irratating at first, because


its soo strong, but use a little every two days, then


everyday.





Good luck to her!











She wont need the shirt if she gets a prescription...


I promise it will work!
Reply:She can try that new Degree Clinical Protection, that or any Degree deoderant.


Or botox shots in her armpit. It allows you to not sweat for at least six months.
Reply:i thoght that i sweated a lot untill i tryed teen spirt deoterant and it works better for me that all of the other i have tried

Sweating issues...?

Okay I have a bad sweating problem and the summer is coming up and Im kinda nervous about wearing short sleeves because i dont want sweat marks...any ideas to help avoid this..im thinking of switching to a different deodorant...

Sweating issues...?
My friend had the same problem and they recommende her to change of deoderant and use Certain-Dri. Ever since she started using it, she has seen that she doesn't sweat anymore and there are no new sweat marks on her shirts. She told me that at first, it kind of gave her a burn when she put it on, but it still helped her. She's already been using it for a year and is very happy w/the product. At first, she bought at Walgreens, but then she saw it at Walmart for $2 less, so I'd recommend you to buy it at Walmart. Good luck: )
Reply:a really strong deoderant


and if that doesnt work cary alot of napkins and use when u need them
Reply:eww
Reply:ok...there are more simple ways or dramatic ways of going about this...i have the same problem..and i'm a girl so it's pretty much a huge deal. So...


1.) Switch deodorants monthly or whatever, you body gets used to the same old same old


2.) use baby powder...not too much or you'll have white marks but just enough to suck up excess


3.) Use deodorant without scents, use like mild to no scent


4.) I found the arm %26amp; hammer baking soda deodorants work great


5.) you can ask your doctor to prescribe you deodorant or something to help with the problem (insurance will only cover this if the doctor says you have a problem)


6.) Botox injections to the armpits helps also, but are very expensive.
Reply:i agree with so lovely use certain dry it really works just read the directions carefully i swear it works though
Reply:i have the same problem. i use mitchum but i think im going to switch.
Reply:What you have is called hyperhydrosis (spelling?). I have, or had it, and I went to a plastic surgeon for about a year and a half and got botox injections about every 6 months. I have not gotten anymore injections in about 3 years, because it must have killed some of the overactive nerves, and now I can control it with certain dry. It seems to be coming back now, the nerves must be regrowing, so I might go get another round of botox. The botox works absolutely wonderfully, but I try to keep that to a minimum. I say go to your doctor for a consult and try the certain-dry before taking any meds or getting botox. I had one doctor put me on meds like 10 years ago, and they made me feel so strange, I quit them after a week. So if the certain-dry wont work, then invest in the botox, it will change your life!! Most reputable plastic surgeons will give you a free consult.
Reply:Make suer you use an antiperspirant, not a plain deodorant.
Reply:my friend had this same problem. the doctor perscribed drysol and it works really well. it's perfect for wearing short sleeves. my friend never wore short sleeves even in the summer.
Reply:Certain Dry.
Reply:Mitchum works well for me.
