I'm a 32-year-old guy and I've been dealing with something odd for a while. My body, especially my hands, always feel really hot, and people often ask me if I have a fever when I shake their hands. This has been going on for many years and I'm starting to get worried. Could there be something going on with my health? Any advice would be appreciated.

it sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of hyperhidrosis, which is excessive sweating that can make your body feel hot. I recommend trying anticholinergic medications such as Glycopyrrolate. This medication can help reduce excessive sweating and make you feel more comfortable. Remember to stay hydrated and avoid triggers that may worsen your symptoms.
