Remedy for Excessive Sweating of Hands and Feet

Sweating limited mainly to the palms and soles may be primary hyperhidrosis, where sweat glands respond strongly without an obvious trigger. New, widespread, or night-time sweating can have another explanation. Heat Exhaustion may cause heavy sweating with weakness, dizziness, headache, nausea, or faintness. Hyperthyroidism and Hypoglycaemia can also cause sweating alongside other symptoms. Obstructive Sleep Apnoea may be relevant when night sweats occur with loud snoring or witnessed pauses in breathing.

Keep a record of when sweating occurs, what triggers it, and whether it affects sleep, work, grip, or walking. Dry the skin carefully, rotate breathable socks, and use footwear that can air between wears. A clinician may discuss Iontophoresis for palms and soles, Botox For Sweating, or Microwave Sweat Gland Treatment when appropriate.

Get urgent help for heavy sweating with fainting, confusion, chest pain, severe weakness, breathing difficulty, or signs of heat illness. Arrange a medical review if sweating starts suddenly, occurs during sleep, affects the whole body, or comes with weight change, tremor, racing heartbeat, fever, or episodes of shakiness.

Ask whether the pattern fits primary hyperhidrosis, whether medicines or health conditions could contribute, which treatment suits palms and soles, how to protect irritated skin, and what symptoms should prompt urgent review.
