Excessive sweating, also known as hyperhidrosis, is a condition characterized by abnormal and excessive perspiration beyond what is needed for normal body temperature regulation. This condition can significantly impact a person's quality of life, leading to discomfort, embarrassment, and social anxiety. Hyperhidrosis can be categorized into two types: primary (or focal) hyperhidrosis and secondary hyperhidrosis. Primary hyperhidrosis typically affects specific areas such as the palms, soles, underarms, or face and is not caused by an underlying medical condition. It often begins in childhood or adolescence and is thought to be linked to overactivity of the sweat glands. Secondary hyperhidrosis, on the other hand, is usually a result of an underlying medical condition or the use of certain medications. Causes of secondary hyperhidrosis include hormonal imbalances (such as those occurring during menopause or hyperthyroidism), infections, diabetes, neurological disorders, and certain cancers. Treatment for excessive sweating depends on the type and severity of the condition. Initial treatments may include over-the-counter antiperspirants containing aluminum chloride, prescription-strength antiperspirants, and lifestyle modifications, such as wearing breathable fabrics and avoiding triggers like spicy foods and stress. For more severe cases, options include medications that reduce sweating, botulinum toxin injections, iontophoresis (a procedure that uses electrical currents to temporarily shut down sweat glands), and in some cases, surgery to remove sweat glands or disconnect nerves triggering excessive sweating. Consulting with a healthcare provider is essential to determine the most appropriate treatment plan.
