Hyperhidrosis
Both my palms and soles perspire all the time. It's more during summer which leads to tiny boils. The boils burst out and a layer of skin peals off. There is excessive itchiness. What should I do?

Hi your condition is called pompholyx with hyperhidrosis , can achieve control by soaking hands in warm water which has few drops of formalin 10 % and using aluminium chloride lotion application, this is going to control it only when u use it . other procedures for this would be botulinum toxin injections which give u relief for 4 to 6 months and also intophoresis.
