Hello
Thanks for the query
The condition what you are facing is normal and it is because of increased sympathetic activity in your body.
Mild forms of it needs no treatment and it tends to resolve on its own with more exposure to such situations but if it becomes increasingly difficult then a small dose of beta blockers like propranolol can help. Please approach your physician for a prescription
I hope I have answered your query
