Excessive head and face sweating

Hi there. I found some relief from this hot head and sweating problem. Fruit polyphenols. I don't know how, and know it sounds ridiculous. Three times it made a very significant difference. My hot head and sweating problem had been getting slowly worse since I was a teenager and now it's almost gone.

I have had this problem of sweating profusely on my scalp and face! As you and the others i drip terribly and my head is soaked. I work with the public which is quite humiliating and affects my time at work and everywhere. I have talked to my dr. She doesnt think its my meds causing it. She said she couldnt give me anything to help.it. It is interferring with my life not to.mentiin my self confidence. I dont have to explain how bad it is for you all know. Should i try a dermatoligist i must recieve hep somewhere, somehow! Thank you!!

I am so happy to know that their are other people that has this sweating problem.  I first noticed this problem sitting in class and my armpits start dripping down my side.  On my last high school football game, when I tried to run off the field, but fell to the ground because my whole body was cramping up.  I sweated out that night and a few more times doing my football career.  No matter the weather condition, if I start any movement that exceeds a minute, I will start dripping from my head, face and armpits.  and it takes a long time to cool off.  Summer time is the worst.  But I constantly have to have a towel with me everywhere I go, or have to go to the bathroom and grab paper towels, just in case my body will get heated up from something.  I stuff paper towels in my armpits in church, so nobody will see my sweaty armpits at the end of service.  I never where gray clothing or anything that will reveal the moisture.  It really has become a problem in the last 10 years, when I started my junk removal business, that at the end of a long day, no matter how much water I drink, I will sweat out and my hands will start cramping severely, different other body parts will follow.  While I am working, I have to have a small towel wrapped around my head, with a hat to cover it, just so the sweat will temporarily stay out of my eyes, and most of the time, I will have to remove the towel and ring it out.  I also will keep a small towel in my shirt and backside to absorb the sweat.  after taking my boots off, my socks are damp and the skin on my feet are moist and wrinkled, "looks almost like sitting in the bathtub to long" .  I have to replace my belt at least once a year, because of the damage of having to much moisture on it.  I also forgot to add, that while I am working, with the towel wrapped around my head, that I still have so much sweat coming down, that the skin on my face get irritated from the constant wiping.   I stay away from hot tubs and saunas.  After taking a shower, If the shower is too warm, I will sweat for a while afterwards.  I will even try cold showers when my body is overheated after a long day of work, and I will still sweat for at least 30-45  minutes afterwards.

  I am almost 47 years old and I am held hostage by my excessive sweating and nobody can tell me how to control it.  I am told acupuncture can do it, but not a believer in it to try it.  I will look up this product called oxybutynin and see if it can work, but I am open to any suggestions.  Please help me.  Thanks for reading

Hello

I am not sure if this will be any help. I too have sufferred this past 6 years with the same problem. I am about to see an Endocrinolists tomorrow but something amazing has happened. My doctor found I had high blood pressure 6 weeks ago and has been giving me medication to bring it down The first two tablets she prescribed gave me swellen ankles so she has given gave me Indapamide 2.5 Mg which have brought the swelling down.  However I have not had any head or body sweats since I started these tablets I of course will tell the doctor tomorrow to see what they say.  It is like a miracle !!!  Cannot beleive it. I am 78 years of age and was beginning to think I would have to stop going out as it was so annoying to. Not sure why these tablets have worked but they are water tablets? Will let you in a few weeks if they continue to work. I too have thyroid problem under control and also arthritis.   Only taken these tablets for 10 days now.
