What Causes Excessive Scalp Sweating In The Elderly Person?
I can sweat heavily mostly from my head, like a small rain storm and it drips off of me. Back of my head at bottom of hair it drips. I m usually OK if I have a fan. Just standing in my kitchen I can have a little rain storm It comes with my face getting real red. I m 65 and past menopause. It gradually got to doing this after 2 hip replacements 2 years ago. Do you know what this is and what can I do about it?
