and plz no wow glad i dont hold hands with u crap k, serious answers only. thank you

Hyperhidrosis?
have you talked to an endocrinologist first to determine the cause. if not, try that route first. sometimes it can be handled fairly easy that way. my second recommendation is botox. we treated many patients for hyperhydrosis successfully with botox. a dermatologist or ent (ear nose %26amp; throat) can give you information regarding how much botox they would use, etc. it usually last 10-12 months. not painful, as the needles used are very thin and small. it is certainly worth talking with them about it. sometimes, your insurance carrier will cover it.


good luck to you.
Reply:ummm..well, I know dermatologists can give shots in the sweat glands of overly sweaty armpits, but as far as hands go, I'd ask a professional. until then, have you ever considered carrying a small thing of baby powder?? maybe?
Reply:Botox works for short term 4-6 month relief.


Certain liposuctions and localized surgeries work long term


Thoracic sympathetic nerve cutting also works using minimally invasive endoscopic technique for long term relief
