Boys' sweaty palms

Boys often sweat on their palms, which is actually very inconvenient for them. They need to wipe the sweat frequently, and it will be very awkward when shaking hands with others. If boys' palms sweat continuously, it may be because of hyperhidrosis of the hands. This disease is equivalent to functional localized abnormal sweating, and the sweat glands are mainly concentrated in the palms.

Sweating palms, also known as hyperhidrosis of the hands, is a very common functional local hyperhidrosis of unknown cause. Due to racial peculiarities, young people who grow up in subtropical areas are particularly prone to this problem. The secretion of sweat glands is controlled by the sympathetic nerves, and hyperhidrosis of the hands is caused by excessive tension of the sympathetic nerves for unknown reasons, such as tension, excitement, stress or high temperatures in summer, which causes abnormal increase in sweating of the palms. Surveys show that the incidence rate is about 0.3% in young people aged 10 to 30, regardless of gender, and the family history is as high as 13% (family hereditary). Most people suffer from hyperhidrosis of the hands since childhood, and it 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 is different from sweating in other parts of your body:

Other parts of the body sweat because of heat, and the hotter it is, the more you sweat.

Sweating palms are related to physical constitution, endocrine system, etc. For healthy people, even if they are sweating all over, their palms should be dry. People with sweaty hands often have cold sweat on their palms without sweating on their bodies. Some people sweat more in winter. Sweating palms are a sign of a weak constitution. If you are also afraid of cold and your hands and feet are cold in winter, then it should be right. Eat more warm and nourishing foods to regulate your body, and strengthen exercise to accelerate blood circulation and promote metabolism, which should have a good effect.

Partial sweating

Commonly known as "half-body sweat". It occurs on the left or right side, upper or lower body. It is caused by wind phlegm or wind dampness blocking the meridians, or insufficient nutrition and defense, or disharmony of qi and blood. It is more common in patients with wind dampness or hemiplegia. If the elderly sweat halfway, it may be a precursor to stroke.

Cold sweat

Refers to sweating due to chills and cold limbs. There is no fever or thirst before sweating, and it is often accompanied by symptoms of cold syndrome such as lack of energy, pale complexion, loose stools, clear and long urine, slow pulse, and pale tongue. It is mostly caused by Yang deficiency and insufficient Wei Qi, but can also be caused by fright.
