Why do my palms and soles sweat?

I believe that everyone generally has symptoms of sweating in the palms and soles of the feet in daily life, and most of the time, sweating in the palms and soles of the feet occurs when the human body sweats. Of course, sweating in the palms and soles of the feet will also occur at other times. So, what is the reason for sweating in the palms and soles of the feet? Most people don’t really understand this. Even those who often experience sweating in the palms and soles of the feet often ignore it.

In fact, for most people, sweating on the palms and soles will not have any bad effects on themselves or their families, but for some people, sweating on the palms and soles will affect their lives and work, so sweating on the palms and soles must be taken seriously. In response to this phenomenon, let’s talk in detail about the symptom of sweating in the palms and soles of the feet.

Sweating of the palms, also known as hyperhidrosis of the hands, is a very common functional local abnormal sweating with unknown cause. Because of racial specificity, young people growing up in subtropical areas are particularly prone to this problem. The secretion of sweat glands is controlled by the sympathetic nervous system, and hyperhidrosis of the palms is caused by excessive tension of the sympathetic nervous system for unknown reasons, such as tension, excitement, stress or high temperatures in summer, which causes abnormally increased sweating of the palms. Surveys show that the incidence rate is about 0.3% among young people aged 10 to 30, regardless of gender, and the family history rate is as high as 13% (it is hereditary). Most people suffer from sweaty hands since childhood, and the condition becomes more serious during adolescence. Patients with hyperhidrosis of the hands are healthy and normal except for sweating of the hands. Most of them also have excessive sweating on the soles of the feet or under the armpits, and a few patients also have body odor.

Sweating in your hands and feet is different from sweating in other parts of your body.

The other parts sweat because it is hot, and the hotter it is, the more you sweat. Sweating in the palms and soles of the feet is related to physical fitness, endocrine system, etc. For a healthy person, the palms should be dry even if he is sweating all over. People who often sweat on their hands often have no sweat on their bodies, but their palms are full of cold sweat and feel icy. Some people's hands sweat more as winter approaches. Sweating in the palms of your hands is a sign of a weak constitution. If you are also afraid of cold and your hands and feet are cold in winter, then this is probably the case. Eat more warming and nourishing foods to regulate your body and exercise more to speed up blood circulation and promote metabolism, which should have good results.

Through the above specific description, I believe that everyone should have a certain degree of understanding of sweating in the palms and soles. In the process of understanding, we also found that sweating in the palms and soles is different from normal sweating. Normal sweating will not cause sweating in the palms and soles. When sweating in the palms and soles occurs, it is often caused by diseases in certain parts of the body, so everyone must pay attention to it.
