Hello, and welcome to 'Ask A Doctor'

Thanks for posting your query. Is it recent onset or has it been there from a long time? Do you have any other medical issues such as diabetes, thyroid, bp etc?

You can use antiperspirant with aluminum chloride (Drysol, Xerac AC) or creams that contain glycopyrrolate.

I hope this helps. Please feel free to discuss further if any.
