Suprisingly enough I would have to say its your diet and physical activity. The same happens to me if I eat unhealthy (example fast food/junkfood). The thing is junkfood has a lot of waste that our bodies don't need. One way of getting rid of the waste is sweating. Exercise and you'll see a whole lotta difference when it comes to everyday life. One extra thing you can do is try to eat fruits, fruits cleanse the body. Cut out the crappy food, exercise atleast 3 times a week if possible, and try to eat fruits, and I promise you, you'll feel drier that ever!

Well, deodorants don't stop perspiration, they only make it more difficult for the perspiration to develop an odor. If you perspire a lot then it is really difficult to overcome that with only a deodorant.\n\nTry Mitchum antiperspirants, especially the unscented varieties. They work very well.

Ok, I know this sounds silly, but it works....just apply some underarm deodorant to the bottom of your feet.  If they get really sweaty....use a deodorant with anitperspirant.

I read in a magazine that you could put deodorant on your feet. If it helps you not sweat from your arm pets then your feet wont sweat.\nGood Luck

My son has this problem. I took him to the dermatologist and she recommended using Certain-Dri. It's an antiperspirant that you can buy from most pharmacies. This just occurred in the last week, so I can't tell you if it's successful or not yet.

If you sweat excessively on the face, underarms, hands and feet you could have a condition known as hyperhydrosis.  There is a surgery that pinches off a nerve in your chest that controls this activity.  The source link below talks more about the actual procedure.

Well the first and most obvious reason is for over-active sweat glands. There is also hyperthyroidism condition that can cause unwanted perspiration, but there are more serious and more common symptoms to this disorder. Believe it or not, I would guess that you are having issues with your deoderant. Try switching your brand of deoderant, types of deoderant (clear gel, spray, solid, invisible solid etc...). You should notice a short window of improvement, anywhere from 1 week to 3 months of no "pit stains" and unexplained underarm perspiration. Once it starts up again, switch brands/types again. There are certain chemicals that react with different skin types and actually causes this. I am also guessing that your underarm wetness isn't perspiration per say, but rather the deoderant itself, melting off your skin (so to speak). It also helps to use your deoderant, then gently wipe under your arm with a towel, to get rid of excess perspirant build-up. I was lucky enough to find a brand/type that has been working for 14 months straight now! Gillette invisible/solid. I know Mitchum also works pretty well. For the most part it's smart to stay away from "gels".\n\nThere is no need for surgery and the chances of your insurance covering this is slim to none. Try this out and I can almost promise you will see huge results. I have even heard of some people using small amounts of powder under their arms, but I have never tried that, so can't say whether it works or not.

i think u must try for "chyanprash" An Indian Ayurvedic product very effective to prevent u from getting cold. And the physical exercise whenever u feel cold. It'll definitely help u as u see when u do some physical work u get sweats.

You probably don't really want to be injecting TOXINS into your arm.  Just use an anti-perspirant.\n\nQuestions? Comments? Concerns? Email me through the link in my profile, and I'll get back to you as soon as possible.

Mitchum clear gel is the best thing I have every found, I had tried everything as well. If it does not work, you may also want to consider a perscription deoderant that is similar to mitchum but contains a higher level of Aluminum Oxide that supresses sweat- hence also supresses odor. The only problem with the perscription stuff is that it is extreamly drying to the skin, and if you shave your arm pits you can not put it on right away because the high alcohol content will make you burn and yell words that you probably did not know were in your vocabulary.\nIf all else fails, you could also consider using a smell supressing deodorant and getting pit- gaurds. I dont know the technical name for them but are usually found in the pantyhose section of stores. they look like thinner shoulder pads that you place under your pits to catch the sweat- at least no one can SEE it, but you will still feel it. (good to wear with white shirts though, never have to worry about pit stains)

stop using such a strong anti perspirant

Are you in airconditioning all the time? That will do it, use a moisturiser on a regular basis, and drink plenty of water.

I tell you to get the anti-perspirant Certain Dri. You will never sweat from your underarms, hands, or feet. Eliminates all odor. Has no smell. Has no residue so it does not stain your clothes at all. It is a roll on you can get at any drug store in the anti-perspirant section. You put it on at night. Go to sleep. Wake up and take a shower. The residue of the deoderant is gone, but you don't sweat or smell at all for a couple of days. And when I say you don't sweat or smell I mean it. I go to the gym and my shirt gets soaked except for under the arms. That is how well it works. I have used the product for over a decade, and have had no unhealthy skin responses from using it.

There's a name for that, "Hyperhidrosis". Don't sweat it. They have medications that will help you. \n.
