Excessive Sweating Is A Problem
Sweating is a body function that is important from the perspective of keeping control over the temperature of the body. Being a warm blooded animal, humans have to regulate their internal body temperatures so that it can maintain a state known as homeostasis. Sweating helps maintain this state of homeostasis. In some people the sweating can be in excess amounts. This condition of excessive sweating is termed as hyperhidrosis.
Hyperhidrosis is a complication of the body and a problem from a social point of view. The person finds it difficult to jell into the society as body sweat comes with odor, which is not accepted in society. Those who sweat from the armpits are more prone to a foul body odor while those who sweat profusely from the palms of the hands or feet are more likely to feel awkward in shaking hands or taking of their shoes in public for fear of rejection.
