Excessive head sweating
by azlinda20, Nov 11, 2009 10:51PM
I sweat excessively to the point I need a towel as the sweat is running into my eyes..down my head and neck. I usually don't have to do much for this to happen. I have it happen just watering my plants in the house...or cleaning the sinks etc. With the air conditioning on in the summer...I am on hormones as I have do have hot flashes...but this has nothing to do with my hot flashes...please help...

You seem to be suffering from Hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating).It may be secondary (as part of an underlying condition like Hyperthyroidism or similar endocrine diseases and dermatological conditions like eczema, psoriasis) in your case. Treatment usually involves antiperspirants like aluminium chloride (20-25%) in 70-90% alcohol, Iontophoresis (applying low intensity electric to the palms and/or soles immersed in an electrolyte solution), botox treatment and surgery if none of the above methods are helpful. There are no specific drugs available for this.
Please consult a dermatologist to find out the confirmatory diagnosis as treatment depends on the same.
I hope it helps. Take care and please do keep me posted in case you have any additional doubts. Kind regards.
