Suggest Remedy For Profuse Sweating On Head And Neck Area

I am having a problem with sweating, just my head and neck. I have been to an endocrinologist, and hormone problems have been dismissed. I did have my thyroid medicine adjusted. It makes me feel very down and out when it happens, it also is embarrasing, as it just pores of my face dripping down onto my clothes. I cannot seem to get an answer. Cathy

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
There are some people who just sweat a lot. There are medications to help reduce sweating and also a surgical procedure to reduce sweat. It all depends on the amount of area that is causing your sweating. For small areas we can use super effective antiperspirants or if a large are the can do a sympathectomy.
