Hello
Thank you for trusting HCM

Dear over manstrubation won't cause your problem. You may suffering from primary hyper hydrosis.

Excessive sweating is called hyperhydrosis. This is two types
1.primary hyperhydrosis :
(also called focal hyperhidrosis) causes excessive sweating in the hands, underarms, face, and feet without any apparent reason.People with primary hyperhidrosis generally sweat from a certain type of sweat gland called eccrine sweat glands. These sweat glands make up the majority of the 2-4 million sweat glands in your body. Eccrine sweat glands are particularly numerous on the feet, palms, face, and armpits. When your over heated, anxiety, or in the effect of hormones cause
Sweating. Doctors not sure about what is the cause for primary hyperhydrosis or sometimes it may be due to hereditary. Few people complain since birth they have sweating. Treated with antiperspirant, anticholinergics, botox injection and low energy electric stimulation. Resistance case surgical sympathectomy also used.

2.secondary hyperhydrosis : (also called generalized hyperhidrosis) causes excessive sweating all over the body or in a larger area of the body and is caused by a medical condition or medication.Sweating from secondary hyperhidrosis is different from primary hyperhidrosis in that it tends to happen all over or in one general area instead of on the hands, underarms, face, or feet. Unlike primary hyperhidrosis, this type is more likely to cause sweating during sleep . Causes due to pregnancy,diabetes, hyperthyroidism, menopause, obesity, parkinson’s disease, rheumatoid arthritis, lymphoma, gout, Infection.
