Hi,
some people sweat more,some people less. That's normal. You should check few blood parameter ( hemogram, LFT, Thyroid function, catecholamines,cortisol, growth hormone,sex hormones,blood sugar- fasting and post prandial). Have you take daily alcohol or any drug? If all these are normal, then this symptom of excessive sweating( hyperhydrosis) can be controlled by sympathetic ganglia(nerve) block injection by pain speciallist in pain clinic of any big hospital.

Thanks,

AMIT
