Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Itching And Sweating All Over The Body?
I m a nineteen year old female and lately I have been extremely itchy all over, been sweating like crazy, can t eat more than a few bites of food at a time, tired all of the time and have three lumps on my neck (two move, one does not). My doctor says I probably have nothing to worry about but I am still extremely worried. Should I be concerned? Ps. I am anemic and have been for most of my life but it has never caused me much trouble
In certain conditions such as hyperhydrosis (excessive sweating), vitamin deficiencies, foul body odour can occur which should be ruled out.Any fungal infections or abnormal discharge should be ruled out.
Shower twice a day and use deodarants. Gently cleanse sensitive areas. Sensitive areas may include your genital area, anus, and ears. Use gentle cleansers to keep your genitals healthy.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
