Extreme perspiration
For past couple of years I'm experiencing extreme perspiration even during the winters. My friends often ask me to consult a doctor but I think it's too petty. I feel sweating happens mainly because I have much chest hair. Could this be a problem? Or should I consult a skin specialist?

Hi
Some people generally perspire more. This is not a matter of concern except if there is any other associated problem such as bad odour etc. Pay attention to your personal hygiene and do shower twice a day. Try using an anti perspiring spray once or twice a day. Drink plenty of water. There are some medication creams which can reduce sweating. Do ask your dermatologist to recommend one for you
