Anal sweat glands what to do about excessive sweat?

[Roisrad15]

For months now I have been having this problem. My butt crack is sweating profusely. Sometimes it’s like a sign like I have to have a vowel movement but sometimes it’s not. I’ve tried to put a small panty liner in my underwear or use powder and it doesn’t work. It’s disgusting and uncomfortable and sometimes it happens 5 minutes after going to the bathroom and wiping it dry. What the hell is going on and what can I do about this?

Well, that's annoying.  You are not alone.  So much so, here is a whole article on it. https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/326897  Are you over weight at all?  That can be a contributing factor.  Losing some weight may help.  Secondly, hormones may contribute.  When is the last time you had those checked? This is a newer problem?  I ask because sweat glands can also be the issue but this has not always been a problem for you so their placement isn't likely the cause. Although, they could have issues.  

Stress can make us sweat more.  There are also underlying conditions that can lead to it such as hyperthyroidism.  Also something called hyper hydrosis.  Hyper hydrosis often happens due to an underlying condition as well such as diabetes, low blood sugar, nervous system disorders.  So, this is important to talk to your doctor about to figure out if there is any other health condition leading to his excessive but sweating.

You should wear breathable, moisture wicking material for your underwear. Cotton over polyester.  ;) But the type they use in athletic garments is best.  I got some for my son at a hiking store/website.  Wipe yourself down. Change often. What about trying an antiperspirant there?  Probably wouldn't hurt. Might work well.  They make starch powder these days (do not use talc) and you could try that.

But really, the big thing is that the sweat is not dangerous, mostly a nuisance.  However, is it because of an underlying condition you need to treat?  That's what you must figure out!

Hi thank you for commenting. So for some reason this issue mostly happened at work but now I am out of work cause of the virus. And it hasn’t really happened because I am able to go to the bathroom
In the privacy of my own house so that has helped. I have had sweating issues for over a year now. I have gained weight... idk. Hopefully since I’m at home this might get better? It was happening for like over a month at work especially. Very strange.

Our bodies are such a mystery sometimes, aren't they?  I'm sorry you are out of work though.  That stinks.  I hope everything is okay as that can be financially very scary.  The US is giving decent unemployment right now so hopefully you are able to take advantage of any programs out there to stay afloat and hopefully we will have people be able to get back out there to work soon!  So, back to anal sweat.  I have an idea.  Mainly because I'm doing it myself.  Ha.  But this time seems like a good time for me to make some efforts for things that would benefit me like losing some weight.  It's hard because I sure can be LESS active being at home like this but I am making it a point to try to add in some new things.  Youtube had a lot of videos exercise related at all different levels.  I'm trying to do one a day.  On top of that, my son and I tried a yoga routine last night.  I'm sore.  ha ha.  But I figure that I will use this time to get some  things on track.  There is a weight loss forum here, think it is called weight loss and dieting.  In the top drop down bar of communities, it is there.  Let's work on it.  And when this is all over, you should go to the doctor to discuss if this is still happening or starts back up when you get back to work.
