I constantly sweat. I am startingto feel embarrassed about it. It's a cold day and I still sweat. What do you think could be the reason? Any remedies?

I know a lady that if the temperature gets above 75 degrees Fahrenheit, her and her clothing will be completely soaked from sweat. She will have it literally dripping from her completely soaked hair?

She is about 5 feet 6 inches tall and weighs maybe 130 pounds. The doctors can't find a reason why?

Wishing you the BEST!

Speak to your doctor - there are causes other than a/i illness and way of managing it.

A lot of meds cause this...discuss with your pharmacist if he can pinpoint if one of your drugs has this effect, then ask if there is alternative & approach doctor for solution.

Hope you can get some help.

Oh my goodness!! Me too!! I saw gp about it and he did hormone tests etc but all fine. He says it's my morphine but I said it started before that! If in doubt blame the meds!!

I get so embarrassed. I've just ordered a load of t shirts in the sale to wear for the winter as I just get so hot! It's not really my body mainly my head! Which is worse as it's so obvious! Shop assistants have even commented before and I find that so rude! As if u would say anything!

So I don't know what causes it but know how u feel! I look like I've been swimming most of the time!

I have head sweat. I can never tell when it will come on. Talked to many docs about it; they don't know. I finally talked to a dermatologist who Rx'd Glycopyrrolate. It definitely works! But I do feel parched all the time. Drink extra water and suck on lozenges and that helps.

Not what you're looking for?
