Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am a 60 year old male, in good physical condition with history of elevated cholesterol (controlled with medication), and chronic low back pain. For several months now, I have experienced profuse sweating in my lumbar region, so much so that it soaks through my pants and I have to place a napkin between my skin and underwear. My FP said that he does not know what the cause may be....any ideas or recommendations?
