What Causes Sweating Even With Very Little Activity?
Question: I know I just asked the other day but there was something I forgot to mention in previuos question I would like to add that very little activity causes me to drench in sweat please help thank you
Brief Answer:
Possible hyperhidrosis
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
As per your symptoms, the possibility of hyperhidrosis is very high.
This causes excessive production of sweat.
It's important to screen yourself for Thyroid issues simultaneously.
I generally prescribe a short course of oral medications like Glycopyrrolate to my patients with such symptoms.
Please check with your physician if s/he shares my view and if can prescribe these medications to improve your symptoms.
Post your further questions if any.
Thank you
