Hyperhidrosis, in simple terms, can be defined as overly active sweat glands stimulated by the sympathetic branch of the autonomic nervous system. This is the part of the nervous system which is responsible for releasing perspiration throughout the body. This is the body's natural method of cooling itself down during active periods (such as exercise) or exposure to warm conditions.
Botox can significantly improve the the most severe cases of hyperhidrosis and give complete relief in many patients for as long as 6 months.
Accupunture treatments can work well too.

it is not a disease. but it is a medical problem. where your sweat glands are very active. go consult your doctor. my close friend has it. i heard you need to undergo an op to get things to be normal again.

Nope... some people just sweat a lot... it's usually genetic

I guess you could start with hyperhidrosis - have a look at the wiki page on this.
