Sweating, a normal thing, but for some people is distress: not yet written, the paper first wet; not yet typed, the keyboard first wet; want to hold the hand of the goddess, but the hand dripping water, embarrassing! Hands are wet all year round, serious, summer blisters, winter peeling, really miserable! This situation is often wrongly considered by some people as “body weakness”. In fact, this is the medical so-called hand sweating syndrome. This kind of people because of hand sweating, in adolescence, books, test papers are often wet a mess, affecting academic performance; usually afraid to shake hands with people, there is a heavy psychological burden and social barriers; because the hands sweat too much, also can not engage in some manual work, such as playing the piano, etc..
The onset of hand sweating is often seen in adolescents and even in children, who have sweaty palms, sweat easily in hot or stressful days and in confined environments, and sometimes have cold, wet palms. In addition to sweaty hands, the feet and armpits tend to sweat as well, and some sweat on the head, face, and groin.
The sweating can be mild or severe; mild sweating is just damp skin, moderate sweating can soak through a handkerchief, and severe sweating can flow downward in drops.
There is a certain genetic predisposition Hand sweating often has a family history, with a positive family history of up to 40%-60%, and is a disorder with a genetic predisposition.
It may be related to abnormal sympathetic excitation There are approximately 4 million sweat glands in the human body, mainly in the palms of the hands, soles of the feet, armpits and face area. They are controlled by sympathetic nerves. If you think of sweat glands as light bulbs, then sympathetic nerves are like electrical wires. Patients with hand sweating have abnormal sympathetic excitation, which is like having too much current in an electric wire, and sweating more than the average person.
