Suggest Treatment For Excessive Sweating In The Groin Area
Hi not sure if you can help because no one else seems to be able. But I have major sweating in the groin area. I have had blood work done and my yearly pap and no one can seem to help they either blame of food or weight gain and Ive tried to work on both and nothing seems to help. Sometimes the sweating is brought on by stress or sometime just anxiety. I need help cause this is ruining my life I dont want to go out and its starting to effect my job. Sorry Im not going to pay some one monthly payments when i can go talk to someone face to face Sorry to waste your time. I have been trying to find help for years an noone can help

Sweating is a normal reaction when your body's working harder and needs to cool itself down. Overweight is one of the causes of excessive sweating. Have you checked your thyroid??
Advice
1. Investigation – blood sugar (F & PP), serum T4 and TSH
2. Measure your blood pressure regularly
3. Avoid stress as it aggravates sweating
4. If you are overweight then lose some weights
5. Avoid hot environment and strenuous activity
6. Wear loose cotton undergarment
7. Drink 4 – 5 liters of water daily
8. Use dusting powder containing ketoconazole or fluconazole
9. Trim hairs of pubic area regularly
10. Take bath two times daily and use branded soap for bathing
11. Avoid smoking, tea and coffee as these aggravates sweating
Methods for weight control:
1. Start workout in gym at least for half an hour for 4 – 5 days in a week regularly
2. Avoid eating high energy foods such as cakes, chocolates, chips etc.
3. Avoid alcohol and smoking
4. Increase consumption of high fiber diet such as wheat bread, dry date, vegetables etc
5. Chew the food properly to make it easily digestible
6. Divide your meals into smaller portions and eat them frequently during the day
7. Avoid oily & spicy food
If you are too much stressed because of this then take alprazolam 0.25 mg daily at bed time per oral for 1 month.
Thanks
