Long road,
Field, meadow and forest.
You feet,
Hands and I are all.
The picture of this quatrain is familiar to everyone with the only difference that some live in the village, while others live in the city. And in a megacity of a hot summer, flour from excessive sweating is much stronger than outside of the city in the fresh air. But one thing - increased sweating in the heat or with considerable physical exertion, and quite another - when even in winter cold in a state of complete rest, a man sweats heavily his hands and feet and smells of them unpleasantly. This is already a real problem and a disaster, and this phenomenon happens in adults and in young children. So what is the reason why some people so much sweat their feet and hands? Let's understand.
Hyperhidrosis - what is it?
The reasons why there are cold and sweaty feet and hands, very much. And the very condition of increased sweating is called hyperhidrosis. The most common causes of hyperhidrosis are diseases of the cardiovascular system, endocrine disorders, foot fungi, tight shoes and too warm synthetic clothing, stress and nervous disorders. And at the expense of the latter usually write off hyperhidrosis without a clear reason.
The fact is that some people, in response to fright, excitement or pain, throw it into the sweat. Hands and feet, and other parts of the body, they are actively wet and become cold even in summer. The disturbed function of the autonomic nervous system responsible for involuntary actions in the body is to blame for this abnormal reaction. The mechanism of the process is as follows: a person experiences stress and sweats heavily from this, and sweat, as is known, has an unpleasant smell that introduces the poor sufferer into even greater excitement, and he sweats even more. Here's a vicious circle turns out.
And why then palms and feet of the child sweat, what is the reason? Everything is very simple. The child has not yet had a heat exchange function for up to a year, and parents also clothe the baby with clothes, here are the legs and handles of him and the moccasins. It will take a little time, and the problem will go away by itself. If the excessive sweating is noted in children after 1,5 years, then, most likely the matter is untreated rickets. And the cause of this problem at the age after 5 years may be malfunctions in the thyroid gland or the presence of helminths.
