Help! asked:
I have always had a problem with excessive sweating on my face (especially on my nose and upper lip) even though it isn’t caused by the temperature.
I’ve done some research, and many websites referred to “Witch-hazel extract” as the solution for the face.
What do you think?
Where can I find witch-hazel extract?
Are there any side effects?
Thank you.

How do you know if you suffer from excessive sweating? Well (that could be viewed as a rhetorical question but), the answer is simple; you just know when you begin to sweat profusely with no apparent reason. If you sweat excessively while just seated chatting the time away with friends, you sweat too much when you play your favorite sport, or you sweat in weird areas of your body like your palms, your feet, head, and you name it, you will be forgiven if you start to view yourself as one of those with excessive sweating problems. In the next few paragraphs, you will discover some of the main causes of excessive sweating. And, at the end, it is expected that you have a fair idea of the problem and how they come about.
Although doctors are still yet to find the exact reason why excessive sweating (otherwise known as Hyperhidrosis) start in humans, they have been able to trace it down to heredity in some cases; in other words, it is passed from one generation to the other and if someone in your family suffers the same problem, then, there’s a higher chance of shaving it too. Aside from these, abnormal functions of the brain, spinal cord, and nerves can result to excessive sweating. For example, every part of the human body is endowed with numerous sweat glands (which are responsible for producing sweat) and nerves (which act as the brain’s receptors). The nerves are responsible for sending messages to the brain asking it to act upon certain stimuli. If the nerves fail to work precisely, they may ask the brain to sweat excessively when they shouldn’t. This is classified as one major causes of hyperhidrosis or excessive sweating.
Puberty and Menopause are also recognised as other causes of excessive sweating. As kids hit their teenage years, they tend to sweat a lot as a result of psychological changes which may be traced back to
the fact that they are facing changes in their bodies and are constantly being exposed to events that introduce them to adulthood. This leads us to the obvious fact that teenagers tend to sweat more than others of younger or older ages. On the other hand, menopause (only seen in menopausal women) can trigger excessive sweating in the same way that puberty causes changes inside the person’s body.
