Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX
Welcome to health care magic,,
Thanks for your query.
Sweaty and feeling hot could be commonly because of emotional stress or anxiety or physical exercise.
There are other causes like thyroid disease, Diabetes (hypoglycemia) or Alcoholism.
For more severe cases,
1) Dry your body especially feet and arms thoroughly after bathing or otherwise getting them wet.
2) Always take balanced diet and drink plenty of water daily.
3) Avoid tight fitting clothes rather wear loose clothes.
4) Wear cotton material clothes and avoid synthetic silk.
5) Bath with antibacterial soap like dettol,savlon
6) Always clean groins or armpits,twice or thrice with brush during bathing.
7) Use antiperspirants and deodarants together like aluminium chlorhydrate or zirconium,one will block perspiration and other will mask the smell.
8) Use antibacterial creams or hand sanitizers on groins or armpits.
10) Curtailing excess tea or coffee.
Check your blood counts,Blood sugar(FBS,PPBS),Thyroid functions (T3,T4,TSH) levels and visit some local doctor or physician for further management.
Hope it will help you.
Take care and Regards,
