Try using powder, like Gold Bond or something.  I know it is very annoying to have sweaty hands.

wash your hands when often, carrying a sanitizer with you & there are even sprays to sanitize the air. some of these things might help.

Hot wax treatments can help immensely. It eases the pain and stiffness in hands, elbows and feet. My husband uses one for his hands and says it's the only thing that actually does work. Good luck and hope you are able to find relief.

Try putting fresh garlic under your armpit.  It will make your body temperature higher.  It should work.  Let me know if not.

If switching to antiperspirant doesn't help and you have enough money, you can go to a doctor who injects Botox into your sweat glands for this problem.  It's expensive though.

My communications class teacher would tell us we could put a little anti-perspirant on our hands and that would solve the problem. Good luck!

Drink plenty of water as it is a natural cleaning force. Then eat a balanced meal regularly with a little exercise thrown in. You will feel terrific and your skin (which is the largest organ of the body) will reap the benefit. Peace and God Bless.

The other answrs are correct, there IS less humidity because the cold air does not hold the moisture in the air.  This often causes dry skin and local irritation.  \n\nThings to do to manage this problem:\n\n#1  Drink More Fluids, water is the best choice for this.\n\n#2  If desired, use a humidifier in your home.  \n\n**This is actually suggested by physicians because mucus membranes (the skin in your mouth and nose) dry out creating cracks in the skin and thereby provide easier access to micro-organisms (bacteria/virus') to get into your body to make you sick.\n\n#3  Use moisturizers often on your skin and hands (especially if you wash your hands often).\n\n  Lubriderm is a suggested product and is used by many medical facilitites.  The best time to use any lotion is after you bath or shower as the skin can absorb and use the moisturizer very well at that point.\n\n#4  Use tepid water or luke warm water to wash.  Hot water actually removes more of your body's natural oils thereby drying your skin out more.\n\n#5 Reduce the number of shower/baths you take (if you are able to) as this washing leads to drier skin.

Static electricity gets worse when it's dry... low humidity.  You can't do much about that outside, but you can always get a humidifier for your house. Use moisturizers on your skin, switch to cotton clothing, use dryer-sheets at the laundry, use a metal object (like a key) to touch metal things like doorknobs after shuffling along your rug.  Along those lines, pick up your feet when you walk so they're not sliding.  If no key is available, try grounding yourself by touching something like the wall before touching a metal object or a person (or pet!) Experiment with different shoes.  My leather boots are the worst!

actually sweaty hands when you're nervous is a normal thing. a normal reaction of the body. but i know a guy who is suffering from this problem, and not only when he's nervous but almost all the time . his hands never quit sweating. i read something that this is a well known problem and many people have it, my advise to u, wash your hands and feet in salty water three times a day and the problem will be gone before u know it.

(m)\n\nAvoid pungent foods such as onions, fish, garlic and spicy meals. These foods can be smelt in sweat and make it more noticeable.\n\nMalt vinegar is an old-fashioned remedy that might be worth a try. Apply some to your armpits at night. Wash it off in the morning and then use your normal deodorant/antiperspirant.\n\nCommercial antiperspirants. You have probably tried most commercial deodorants and antiperspirants, but check the labels and look for one with a different active ingredient. If you have heard a rumour about antiperspirants/deodorants and breast cancer, take a look at the section on Antiperspirants and breast cancer.\n\nShave your armpits. Hair holds sweat and gives the bacteria more to work on. \n\n20% aluminium chloride is the next thing to try if ordinary antiperspirants haven't done the trick, but it can damage clothing. It can be bought from the pharmacist (ask for Drichlor, Anhydrol Forte or Perspirex) and should be used as follows. \n\nBefore going to bed, wash and dry your armpits thoroughly. If you apply the solution to wet skin, a chemical reaction takes place that produces hydrochloric acid, which can irritate skin and tarnish jewellery. If necessary, use a hair dyer to ensure your skin is absolutely dry. \nApply the solution when you are lying down in bed. This sounds odd, but armpit sweating switches off when you lie flat, and the solution will be more effective if applied then. The solution works by passing into the openings of the sweat glands, causing them to swell up and block, but if sweat is pouring out of the glands when you apply the solution, it won't be able to get in. \nIt works best if the area is covered with plastic cling-film (food wrap). Unfortunately, the armpit is an awkward shape. Use tape (such as, Micropore, which you can buy from a pharmacy) to hold the plastic wrap in place, then put on a tight-fitting T shirt to help keep it in position. \nDon't apply the solution directly after shaving, or the skin may become sore. \nWash off the solution in the morning, and don't reapply until bedtime. \nIf it proves effective reduce the application to every other night, and then to once or twice a week. Don’t use it every day, because it can irritate the skin.

You might have an overactive sweat gland. A doctor can prescribe a special deodorant for you to help with this.
