I can understand your concern. Sweating is our body's natural buffering mechanism to maintain body temperature in hot environment. However, excessive sweating like you mentioned can interfere with life quality and should be managed.
There are many reasons that can cause excessive sweating like thyroid disorder and diabetes being most common followed by less common reasons like alcoholism, tuberculosis, and rhumatoid arthritis.
I would advise you to get blood tests for thyroid hormones and diabetes. If they are not within normal range, you should visit a physician or Endocrinologist for maintenance of hormones and management of the problem. If they come within normal range, you should consult a dermatologist for further investigations.
I hope this information helps. Thank you for choosing HealthcareMagic. Take care.
