Help with Hyperhidrosis!! HELP!?
I can appreciate your frustration.





Have you tried using an antiperspirant deoderant for your hands and feet. Thats all i can suggest.





I know they do botox injections for under the arms. Have you seen a specialist dermatologist yet they may have some new up to date treatments?





I use talcum powder when i play pool when i get sweaty palms and this works really well. Good luck.

Reply:There is no immediate cure for it, but there are treatments that make it managable. It's surprising that your doctor didn't mention any of them.





Chemical sprays/rubs (aluminum chloride), botox injections to disable sweat glands, oral drugs (oxybutynin is the most effective so far..).





There are also a few surgeries, ETS (endoscopic throacic sympathectomy) as well as sweat gland suction, iontophoresis, phenol injection, etc. Talk to your doctor about your options..
Reply:Have you tried applying clinical strenght deodorants to your hands and feet?





You can try:


1. Using Drysol (a prescription deodorant) on your hands and feet.


2. Using Certain Dri ( a non-prescription alternative)


3. Soaking your feet in Tannin Tea for 15 minutes a day. This works wonders.


4. Drink more water to lower your body temperature


5. Wear loose clothes


6. Iontophoresis is a treatment for excessive sweating of the hands and feet.
