Sweating from sweat glands, often in response to heat, exercise, or stress.

Antiperspirants reduce perspiration, and can be applied at night to palms or soles of feet. Look for man-made fabrics designed to wick moisture away from body during exercise.

Seek medical care right away for:

• Sudden cold sweat, especially if chest pain or shortness of breath also are symptoms.

Make an appointment to see a healthcare professional if:

• Amount of sweat changes a lot.
• Daily activities are altered due to sweating.
• There's a change in body odor.
