The main part of the sweat gland is situated in the dermis layer of the skin, however the tubes reach the epidermis/outer layers of the skin. Sweat glands are found all over human body (around2-5 mill), but are most abdundant in palms, feet and forehead. There are two types of sweat glands: eccrine and apocrine glands and are made up of epithelium tissue, surrounded by a network of capillaries
