Suggest Treatment For Excessive Sweating In An Elderly Person
I am 58 years old and I sweat 24/7 non-stop. I mean I am dripping wet from my head to my feet. I must be in temperatures of 67 degrees to stop sweating. No meds work...chronic insomnia, depression, anxiety, back pain, ptsd. Where can I go for relief?

* The underlying cause must be evaluated with an expert physician to get it cured and fixed in a sound professional manner, there can not be an online remedy for such issue.
