IT’S THE PITS

Some people sweat a lot more than others. This can be tricky when you’re wearing certain clothes, or are acutely aware of sweat patches. Always wear breathable cotton, and look at getting an aluminium-based antiperspirant – your doctor can prescribe this if the problem is very bad. For extreme cases, known as hyperhidrosis, treatment is available on the NHS, such as Botox injections or medicines.
