Introduction to sweating disorders
-
Sweat is made by sweat glands in the skin and carried to the skin’s surface by ducts.
As sweat wets the skin and evaporates, it helps keep the body cool. Thus, people normally sweat more when it is warm. They also sweat when they are nervous, under stress, or have a fever.
Sweat is composed mostly of water, but it also contains salt (mostly sodium chloride) and other chemicals. When a person sweats a lot, the lost salt and water must be replaced.
Disorders of sweating include those ofExcessive or abnormal body odor (bromhidrosis)
Variations in the amount of sweat produced (hypohidrosis [diminished sweating] and hyperhidrosis [excessive sweating])
Trapped sweat (causes prickly heat)
