I never used to sweat, but now I'm soaked!

A few months ago, my underarm perspiration majorly increased. I used to never sweat, but now, it's happening every day. I have to always put my hands on my hips, because if they are glued to my sides, like they usually are, I sweat! My mom has done everything to help me out, buying me fancy soaps and antiperspirants, but nothing works. Please help!
 
Dr. Dee Anna Glaser says, “It sounds like you have hyperhidrosis, which affects about 3 percent of the population.  When the underarms are affected, it usually starts around age 14 to 16.  It has nothing to do with soaps, bathing or cleaning habits.  We think it runs in families.
 

“You can try a clinical strength antiperspirant, which should be applied at night before you go to bed.  You can reapply it in the morning for extra results.  If this doesn't give you relief, it is time to see a dermatologist for prescription medications.”

You can get more information about hyperhidrosis at sweathelp.org.

Hey hermionelover, mhmm I don't know what that could be. It doesn't sound serious but I would head to the doctor just to be sure. It could just be an allergic reaction to something. No worries girly. Xoxo

I know this has nothing to do with this article but I was wondering, on my foot on the outside of it there is like this bump. Its kinda like the bone and it looks like a bunion ( my nana has one) but I thought you didn't get those until you were old or got arthritis??? Also on the other foot on the bottom right were it just about join to the toes is a bump that doesn't stick out that much but kinda hurts when I walk on it (my feet are really sore when I wake up and I have to wear slippers). But whats going on with this????? Do I need to go to the doctors or something????? Lynae P.

Hi, well I have the same problem and I'm 12. My mom won't let me shave my underarms either. I LOVE wearing tank tops and short sleeved t-shirts and I can be wearing them for like 2 minutes and I'm SUPER sweaty. Is it because I'm not shaving my underarms or because of the same thing in the article?

Hey girl,

Shaving your underarms may help with sweat, but if you use deodorant it will still be effective with or without hair! You may have what the article is talking about, but you should talk to a doctor to be sure.
