I hold hands with my bestfriends and one time much Friend asked why are your hands sweaty and I said what really? and that was half of 8th grade I notice they were getting sweaty. now im in 9th grade and they are getting worse. I’m doing nothing and they are sweating and it’s really hard for me to shake peoples hands or high five people or even hold my phone without it having sweat on it and it’s really embrassing. Im also in theatre arts and we have to touch hands. My birthday is coming up too.

Thanks for the query. You seem to be having a condition called hyperhidrosis. On evaluation, a cause can be found on few occasions and that can be helpful to treat you. Many a times when the cause is not known , empirical treatments are offered like the ones you are doing. Iontophoresis and botulinum toxins are other treatment options with independent merits and demerits. Discuss about oral medications also with your doctor.
Next Steps
Apart from active pharmaceutical medicines, a healthy diet and lifestyle is mandatory to achieve results.
