Do you ever feel that you sweat more than other people? Or you feel sweat in your palms? This all can be due to excessive sweating....called HYPERHIDROSIS.
It is a condition in which your body's sweat glands overact without any apparent reason. This can sometimes be embarassing as well!
WHAT CAN BE DONE?
1. Antiperspirant: contains a low dose of metal salt are usually tried first because they are readily available. Antiperspirants containing aluminum chloride may be more effective.
2. Iontophoresis: a device which passes ionized tap water through the skin using direct electricity.
3. Medications: Drugs like Anticholinergics can help in reducing sweating.
4. Botox: Botox- A has been approved by FDA for treating excessive underarm sweating.
5. miraDry: In this technique, microwave energy is used to permanently kill sweat glands.
6. Lasers: Lasers work on the same line as miraDry as it targets and kills the underarm sweat glands.
7. Surgery: Thoracic sympathectomy is considered to be the last treatment approach in extreme cases.
