Stress and orthostatic sweating

Stress and orthostatic hyperhidrosis refers to sweating reactions caused by changes in body position and compression of one side of the body when in the lateral position. It is a manifestation of hyperhidrosis. Hyperhidrosis is a disease caused by excessive excretion of sweat glands due to excessive excitability of sympathetic nerves. Sympathetic nerves govern sweating throughout the body. Under normal circumstances, the sympathetic nerves regulate the body temperature by controlling sweating and heat dissipation. But sweating and facial flushing in patients with hyperhidrosis are completely out of normal control. Sweating and facial flushing put patients in a state of helplessness, anxiety, or panic every day.
