Hyperhidrosis is a condition characterized by excessive sweating that can occur in various parts of the body, including the hands, feet, armpits, and face.
The exact cause of hyperhidrosis is not known, but it may be due to overactivity of the sweat glands or a problem with the nervous system.
Anyone can develop hyperhidrosis, but it is more common in people with a family history of the condition and those who are overweight or have certain medical conditions, such as diabetes.
The main symptom of hyperhidrosis is excessive sweating that can interfere with daily activities and cause embarrassment or social anxiety.
A dermatologist can diagnose hyperhidrosis based on a physical exam and a discussion of your medical history.
There are several treatment options available for hyperhidrosis, including antiperspirants, medications, botox injections, and surgery. Your dermatologist can help determine the best treatment option for you based on the severity and location of your hyperhidrosis.
There is no known way to prevent hyperhidrosis, but there are steps you can take to manage the symptoms, such as wearing breathable clothing, avoiding triggers that worsen sweating, and practicing good hygiene.
