This is actually a disorder that is caused by overactive sympathetic
glands. I have just been looking things up on this because i have the
opposite trouble - no sweating. Your condition is called Hypermelanosis
--there is a lot on the internet about it and there is actually an
operation to stop the sweating - not sure what i think about that. But
you are not alone.

It doesn't matter if I'm doing anything strenuous or if I'm just doing normal daily things, my head sweats profusely. Here's and example, I was sitting in a chair talking and laughing loud next thing you know sweat was dripping down my face and neck. I had the air conditioner on. I've looked on the internet and cannot find any thing related to this. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I intend to talk to my dr. but am unsure which doctor (OBGYN or dermatologist). Thanks
