D . , N e w s A m e r i c a S e r v i c e Embarrassed by excessive sweating DEAR DR. LAMB: I have a problem with excessive sweating. I am 18, In very good shape, eat well and exercise six days a week. I also drink plenty of water, 18 to 23 cups a day. When people touch my body they almost always comment on how hot it feels. Is there anything I can do? I am always sweating, especially from my forehead. It is really embarrassing. DEAR READER: Excess sweating over much of the body usually means . that your body is trying to eliminate body heat. Your body eliminates ex­ cess heat by increasing the blood flow through your skin and by evaporative cooling fjom sweating. You might see a pEysician for a medical checkup. Some people have excess body heat and sweating from an overactive thyroid gland. After your checkup you. might benefit from changing your lifestyle. Overeating leads to over-sweating. Why? Because as you exceed the number of calories your body needs, it activates brown fat, which is different from common white fat, to produce heat. Animals' brown fat helps them avoid obesity. Just a few days of overeating is enough to activate your brown fat to produce excess heat. It is great to prevent obesity but it can lead to excessive sweating and feeling hot. Spices or spicy foods may stimulate the area In your brain that stimulates heat loss. And alcohol can also cause sweating. If your lifestyle Is not contributing to sweating, then your doctor may be willing to prescribe a beta-blocker, such as Inderal, which counteracts the adrenaline effect. Too much adrenaline may also cause generalized sweating. I have discussed the sweating pro­ blem In The Health Letter 18-2, "Sweating, Antiperspirants and Deodorants," which I am sending you. Others who want this issue can send 75 cents with a long, stamped, self- addressed envelope for it to me in care of this newspaper, P.O. Box 19622, Ir­ vine, CA 82713. Obviously, a person with generalized sweating, including the forehead, can't use local antiperspirant products. But these may help with underarm sweating or sweaty feet. Some people are benefitted from anticholinergic medicines such as Pro-Ban thine. These affect another part of your In­ voluntary nervdlis system, which con­ trols sweat glands. DEAR DR. LAMB: I have just had CROSSWORD my right hand go numb. It is sore with tingling pains and burning feelings. It is crippling me for the work I have to do, typing, writing and other hand work. I am told I have carpal tunnel syndrome. I am wearing a splint to im­ mobilize the wrist, putting ice on it and hoping it will recover, but the doctor didn't explain to me if it will get better or if I'll have to have surgery. Does surgery permanently correct this pro­ blem without injury to the nerve? I don't want surgery if it can be avoided. DEAR READER: If you have carpal tunnel syndrome you have a main nerve to the palm area of your hand en­ trapped and compressed. This happens because there Is a watchband-like structure of connective tissue around your wrist. There is a small space or tunnel between this band and your wrist bones. The tendons to close your fingers, blood vessels and nerves pass through this small space. You can have inflammation of the sacs around those tendons, and the swelling will cause pressure. A splint at night often helps. But if a splint and anti-Inflammatory medicines don't work, then the watchband structure can be split, freeing the nerve. That usually corrects the problem.

Inc By James Jacoby Newspaper Enterprise Association Two better than one The bid of three spades by North was not a full-fledged responder's reverse. Instead, in their partnership methods, it was simply checking back to see if a 4-4 spade fit existed. (South might easily have jumped to two no- trump while still holding four spades.) North and South also had an agree­ ment that North would bid three clubs over two no-trump to elicit three-card support for hearts from South. South therefore knew that his partner did not hold five hearts, and so bid three no-trump. The diamond suit was established for the defense on the opening lead. At first glance, declarer's problem seems to be simply which black card to look for, the club king or the spade queen. The odds are even for finding a specific card well located. But if that chance can be improved upon, it is worth doing even at the risk of being set an extra trick. Following the sound bridge axiom that two chances are better than one, declarer played the king of spades at trick two and a spade to the ace at trick three. Probably the queen of spades was not going to drop, but lo and behold, it did! That gave declarer nine tricks, even though the heart suit split badly. Of course, more often than not, South would have hao to resort to the club finesse, but on the occasional deal where the spade queen comes down doubleton (as here), he is spared that necessity.
