What Causes Excessive Sweating Of Hands, Underarms And Feet?
I'm sweating and its a bit cold, it's happening everyday. I'm not sure if this is something that could threaten my life. My Hans, underarms and feet are sweating without me being in a hot environment or working out. What's my condition and Is it life threatening?

Hi,
Excessive sweating can be non harmful causes like anxiety, stress, heredity. Other certain more serious causes are-
Fever from unknown cause, Obesity, diabetes, heart problem, thyroid problems,certain medicines (anti depresants, Beta blockers).
Consultation of a physician/investigations should follow specific treatment as per need.
Thanks.
