My palms and feet sweat excessively and it's really bothering me. Is there any permanent treatment or surgery that can stop this? I've tried everything but nothing seems to work long-term.

Excessive sweating (palms/feet) may respond to iontophoresis or Botox; thoracic sympathectomy is a surgical cure but has risks like compensatory sweating.

I'm not sure what's going on, but every now and then I get this weird greasy warm feeling on my lips. They feel dry and normal when I touch them, but when I lick them, they taste just like grease. It's the strangest thing, and I've tried telling my doctors about it, but they just look at me like I'm crazy. It doesn't happen all the time; it just comes out of nowhereeven while I'm just watching TV or something. And it's not even my whole lipusually just a small part. Any idea what this could be?
