Can having hyperhydrosis (extremely sweaty hands and feet) in the military result in a discharge?

I understand it a disqualification at entry but if diagnosed after you’ve already been in could it result in a medical discharge?

Only if it interferes with you doing your job. But there are plenty of treatments for it to make it manageable.

I'm not expert but if someone is looking to get out of the military for it they shouldn't have joined in the first place.
That condition would assume the excessive sweat happens most of the time not as the normal result of anxiety or extreme heat for example.

Does it interfere with duties and require a P3 profile?
