Is Excessive Sweating And Acne Hereditary?

Hi,



I am female, 36 years old and generally in good health. I used to sweat profusely under my arms since puberty and had to wear sanitary towels with tape as my clothes would be soaked if i didnt. This has subsided over the last couple of years after at least 10 years of using Diclor. However i have always had a problem with feeling over heated and sweating after a brisk walk. I remember arriving at my train station in winter and when i boarded the packed train standing against the glass, steam formed around my head onto the window. Now its a problem when i arrive somewhere i seems to have to take 10-15 minutes for my body to cool down and my head and body to stop sweating. Its very inconvenient and annoying. Just to add various members of my family have had the same sort of sweating problems or problems relating to severe acne in adults. Is this hereditary and what can i do about it? Thanks so much.
