Speak to your GP about diagnosis and treatment for hyperhidrosis.

You can put a small fan on your desk so you can dry your hands every few minutes. I never found a solution myself, as I had the same issue when I was playing on PC. Controllers don't seem to do it as much, or maybe I just sweat less in the hands as I get older.

Thing is, I barely play competitive games at all lmao. That’s what baffles me the most. I can literally sit down at my desk, watch some youtube and have my hands sweaty like an esporter’s.

I was just kidding. Is it the sweat that bothers you or the lack of grip? Sounds silly but if it's the latter you could just get some gloves. I wouldn't be surprised if cooling gloves are a thing

What bothers me most is the stickiness of my mouse and keyboard after I use them, not the sweat per se. I did consider using gloves but it's definitely much more uncomfortable. Thanks regardless!

I just wipe them on my pants. It comes down to overactive sweat glands. They can do surgery, but I hear it just makes other areas sweat more afterwards.

Wiping them solves it for maybe 30 seconds before they're the exact same. Still definitely not willing to get surgery over this lol

Have you also tried sanitizer right after washing them? The alcohol kinda helps keep them dry for a bit longer.

I just struggle with my items slipping off. It helps me to have items that have surfaces that eliminate friction.

I had my sweat glands removed like Bruce Lee. 0/10 do not recommend

Makes me miss the madcatz ps2 controller with fans built into the controller grips, was a godsend in the old gow games with all the button combo mashing insanity.

You live somewhere with high humidity? Can’t really solve that without having a dehumidifier running, or maybe a fan blowing cool air across you.

Have your tried to wear knitted fingerless gloves? I use to live in a pretty cold environment so whenever I would work or game on my computer I would wear them for warmth and didn’t really bother me as far as movement or comfort. Might help absorb some sweat?
