Symptoms of sweating

Transparent sweating - obstruction of canals in the upper layers of the epidermis, which leads to the formation of bubble-like bubbles that easily burst under pressure.

Red sweating - obstruction of canals in the middle of the epidermis, with a delay in sweat in the epidermis and dermis. This causes irritation and the formation of itchy papules.

Pustular sweating is similar to a red sweating, but with the formation of pustules, and not papules.

Profuse sweating - obstruction of the canal of the dermal papilla in the dermoepidermal junction with a delay in sweat in the dermis. This leads to the formation of large, deep, often painful papules.
