Answers:
Anhidrosis means lack of sweating. It is also known by a number of other names including Adiaphoresis, Ischidrosis, Hypohidrosis, Oligidria, Oligohidrosis and Sweating deficiency.
This is characterized by abnormal deficiency of sweat, general or localized, temporary, permanent or accompanying disease conditions.
In medical terms the most probable cause MIGHT be (not proven yet) under-activity of the sympathetic nervous system. Eccrine sweat glands are innervated via muscarinic acetylcholine receptors.
Suggested treatments include treatment for temporary relief with pilocarpine and hot drinks. Pilocarpine is used to stimulate sweat glands in a sweat test to measure the concentration of chloride and sodium that is excreted in sweat. Also it is very important to use soft clothing, bland, soothing ointments and lubricants to protect your skin.
