What Causes Excessive Sweating In The Neck And Chest?

Sticky neck chest, under the collar. Driving me nuts. Change T-shirt and wipe off,, ok for a couple hours and then its back. My local has tested blood and urine and everything looks good. I had bladder infection a while back, thought that was doing it but it is gone now. I have had this before but not this bad. I m 75 years old.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

As per the narration, the hyper hydrosis of local parts indicate sweat gland sensitivity in majority of the cases once other causes are ruled out. Local care with anti perspirants, stress management helps great.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
