Hi
Welcome to the forum!
Endocrine gland related conditions like hyperthyroidism, acromegaly and glucose control disorders all result in increased sweating. Pheochromocytoma, cancers, carcinoid syndromes, tuberculosis and other infections too can cause increased sweating. Hence it would be good to consult either an internal medicine specialist or preferably an Endocrine specialist.
Hope this helps. Take care!
