Why do I sweat excessively on my palms and the soles of my feet? I also have high cholesterol and my triglycerides are 216. Could these be related?

Sweaty palms/soles means perhidrosis. Not related to cholesterol/triglycerides. Triggered by stress, anxiety, heat. Triglycerides 216 needs lifestyle changes. Repeat Lipid Profile after 3 months.

Take a LIPID PROFILE Test

Hi Doctor. I am a 41 year old male. My abdominal ultrasound report shows that the liver is average in size, measuring about 16.1 cm in the right midclavicular line with a smooth outline. It has normal homogeneous echogenicity with smooth echotexture. There is an ill defined heterogeneous lesion in segment IVb V measuring about 1.7 by 2.4 cm with minimal surrounding vascularity. The portal vein is average in calibre with normal colour flow. Can you explain the cause and how dangerous this condition is.
