Excessive sweating, or hyperhidrosis, can also be another warning sign of obesity or other serious conditions, such as diabetes, thyroid problems, or infection. Excessive sweating is generally more common among individuals who are overweight or obese, as sweating is a normal reaction when the body begins to work harder as a way to cool itself down. There are many variations in how a person sweats, just as there are variations in other bodily functions. Specifically, there are two types of excessive sweating: localized and generalized hyperhidrosis, with both ranging in severity and can be a clear-cut sign of other serious health conditions as well.
